Florida Prestressed Concrete Association (FPCA) is pleased to announce its

Best in 2024 Precast Concrete Awards Program

The best in 2024 Precast Concrete Awards Program was developed to recognize design excellence, innovation, and construction quality in the use of precast concrete in Florida. Showcasing the wide and varied use of award-winning precast prestressed concrete statewide.

Winners of the Best of 2024 Precast Concrete Awards Program, will be recognized during our awards presentation on Friday, January 31, 2025, at 7:00 p.m.CT.

Precast concrete is a versatile and flexible material that can be used in a wide range of projects and applications; therefore several categories are available for entry, including:

  • Bridges
  • Parking Structures
  • Schools
  • Health Care
  • Transportation
  • Stadiums
  • Correctional
  • Marine
  • Architectural Use of Precast
  • Innovative Use of Precast 

ELIGIBILITY 

Precast concrete must have been produced by a FPCA producer member. Entries have to be submitted to FPCA by Thursday, November 28, 2024. All entries must include a completed entry form, at least 8 (the more the better, we want to showcase your project), high-resolution “landscape profile” photographs, and a photography release form. 

PHOTOGRAPHY 

All entries must submit a minimum of eight photos of the completed project. Elevations, sections and close-up photos of finishes are helpful. Each photograph should have a caption describing the features shown. All photos should have as high a resolution as possible because they will be printed at 300 dpi or higher as they will be used to publicize the winners. 

JUDGING 

Entries are judged by an independent jury of industry experts who will consider creativity and innovation in the use of precast concrete to achieve aesthetic expression and function. 

Because of the broad diversity and the nature of challenges presented to architects and engineers, there may be co-winners or honorable mentions in certain categories. In special cases, FPCA has the option to create ad-hoc categories based on the projects submitted. 

DISCLAIMER 

Because the purpose of the program is to encourage new approaches in the use of precast concrete, FPCA shall have the right to publish all photographs, names of any and all entrants, and projects submitted to the program without compensation. Each entrant assumes responsibility for material submitted. All entrants must complete a photo permission form for each photographer. All submissions become property of FPCA.
