The inaugural Concrete Openings Awards ceremony was held in 2014 to showcase the best jobs covered in CSDA’s official magazine and recognize the contractors who performed the work. This year, fifteen job stories were split into four categories and put before a panel of judges. The panel scored each job based on its pre-planning, use of innovation, degree of difficulty and quality requirements. The project with the highest score in each category was declared the winner.

Details and images of the winning projects will be displayed during the awards ceremony and for the remainder of the exhibition, with a commemorative book issued to all in attendance.
