Description
In this year’s competition we are following the consideration of sustainable building practices. The potential for precast/prestressed concrete as a green building material is significant, and innovative applications may contribute to greater performance in several areas of sustainable building. Successful entries will be characterized by innovative use of precast/prestressed concrete as an agent in sustainable design. A minimum potential Silver LEED rating is required to be integrated into the design.
Jury
The jury will be composed of three prominent architects/engineers representing design expertise in the field of total-precast concrete design, sustainable design, landscape planning, and/or the presentation/evaluation of architectural competition.
