CFA Projects of the Year

Projects of the Year is a program that delivers recognition of the combination of innovation, craftsmanship and creativity of the concrete contractor as well as the vision and creativity of the design professional. Projects submitted annually to this program represent the leading work across the breadth of cast-in-place concrete solutions produced by association members. They demonstrate the technical challenges overcome by the professional craftsmen found throughout North America and continue to set a new standard for quality and technological achievement for the cast-in-place industry. Many of these projects are quickly covered up as foundations or built upon and around as structure, and the achievement lost visually. Some, however, become the framework expressed through masterful works of concrete technology and construction.

Categories for the competition at present include Single-Family Residences; Commercial Projects; Apartments or Multi-Family Residences; All-Concrete Homes; Agricultural Projects; Non-Foundation Elements; and Non-wall Structural Elements. The CFA also maintains a free-category option for defining new categories where contractors are working (e.g. pools, staircases, etc.).

Project submissions must be received by April 30th. Videos and photos must be submitted before May 15th.
