The winning entries illustrate the variety, beauty and flexibility of the tilt-up construction method.<\/p>\n<p>A panel of seasoned tilt-up professionals representing the fields of architecture, development, education, engineering, and construction evaluate each project\u2019s aesthetic appeal, architectural ingenuity and creativity in engineering and construction.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBecause the benefits of tilt-up concrete construction are so diverse, ranging from economy to architectural potential to resiliency, the projects that are recognized through this program are equally diverse,\u201d said Mitch Bloomquist, Managing Director for the TCA. \u201cProjects are awarded for a variety of reasons. While the best looking projects often rise to the top, innovative applications, projects in new markets and those designed or constructed innovatively are often recipients of this award.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll projects submitted are incorporated into our ever expanding project database and become the cornerstone for the association\u2019s marketing efforts for the year ahead,\u201d said Ed Sauter, Executive Director of the TCA. He explains that the program has an extremely large reach and provides projects with global exposure. \u201cProjects are often featured in major concrete industry publications, displayed at premier industry events, and used as fodder for expanded articles in <a href=\"http:\/\/tilt-up.org\/tilt-uptoday\/es\/\"><i>Tilt-Up hoy<\/i><\/a> and case study presentations at <a href=\"http:\/\/tilt-up.org\/tilt-uptoday\/es\/events\/2014-tca-convention\/\">convenci\u00f3n<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s exciting to be entering our 24th year for the awards program,\u201d said Glen Stephens, Principal at Stephens Architectural Associates and chair of the TCA Awards Committee. \u201cIt was not all that long ago that the award submittals consisted of warehouses and distribution buildings \u2013 but that is no longer the case. The spectrum of buildings using tilt-up construction continues to expand: retail centers, office buildings, educational facilities, faith based buildings, monuments, healthcare buildings and car dealerships\u2026 the list goes on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Continues Stephens, \u201cOnce again I anxiously await my opportunity to review and enjoy the submissions and discover the many new ways in which architects and designers have raised the bar even higher!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Industry professionals are encouraged to consider submitting projects for the annual Achievement Awards competition throughout the year. To qualify for consideration, a member of the team that maintains a current TCA membership must submit projects. All TCA members affiliated with the project will receive recognition.
