EACH YEAR, PROFESSIONALS IN THE CONCRETE INDUSTRY THAT ARE MEMBERS OF THE CFA SUBMIT PROJECTS OF VARYING SIZE, SCOPE AND CHALLENGE FOR CONSIDERATION BY THE GENERAL PUBLIC TO BE CONSIDERED AS A PROJECT OF THE YEAR. MULTIPLE CATEGORIES OFFER RECOGNITION FOR ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF ANY SIZE AS WELL AS TYPE OF PROJECT.

The 2014 Grand Project was selected by industry peers and popular vote to be the serpentine walls of the Gardenesque home built in Madison, WI by CFA member, Hottmann Construction.

This year, ten projects are presented on the pages that follow. Each page gives key statistics and a brief synopsis of the project from perspective of the submitting company, as well as some representative photos.

As a participant in this industry, you are encouraged to visit the CFA Projects of the Year at http://bit.ly/CFAAwards or by visiting the CFA website, www. cfawalls.org.

You will be presented by each project, with multiple photos and additional project information. Each project will be rated on a scale of 1 to 5 (not ranked) according to three categories of assessing its challenge and success.

All projects will be evaluated for top project in each category, honorable mention. One project will be selected across all categories as the Overall Grand Project.

Year after year, companies with entries receiving such recognition make this a part of their marketing presence. If you have projects that have presented challenge or offer a sense of pride for your company, you are encouraged to consider submitting them for next year’s competition.
