and encourages outstanding architectural design that
incorporates the use of concrete
masonry within the building envelope. The program also recognizes the
Designers, Builders, Structural Engineering Firms, Concrete Masonry
Suppliers, and project Owners. This program is sponsored by Concrete
Masonry Association of California and Nevada (CMACN) and co-sponsored
by AIA California Council (AIACC). |

Entry Fee
Each
project entered in the Concrete Masonry Design
Awards Program must be accompanied by a non-refundable
$150 entry fee. The fee should
be included with the Request for Entry Form and should be post marked,
ordered on line, or faxed with credit card information no later than March

Eligibility
Projects
must be located in California or Nevada and constructed
and completed within the last five years to be eligible.
An exception will be
made for the 25 Year Award where the project must be 25 years or older
as of January 1, 2013.
Projects must
be submitted by the architect of record. An exception will be made for the 25
Year Award in the event the original architect of record is
unclear. In this case, any architect from the design firm (original or current
if the firm has been sold) that designed the original structure(s) or who designed
any renovations or updates to the original structure, if the original firm is
no
longer in existence may submit the project.
All projects
must incorporate a minimum of 30% concrete masonry units in the building envelope
as load bearing, infill, or veneer materials
in combination with load bearing or infill, to be eligible for this awards
program. Projects may be either a single structure or a group of related
structures, including parks, plazas and monuments.
Not eligible Projects constructed of stone, clay brick, clay brick veneer, brick block,
tilt-up, or precast panels simulating concrete masonry units, or any other
materials simulating concrete masonry units are not eligible. |
|
Awards
A single
outstanding project in each category
may be selected as a Grand Award
winner by the Jury to receive
the Concrete Masonry Award Sculpture.
At the discretion of the Jury, two additional distinguished projects may be
recognized; one with an Honor Award and one with a Merit Award (except
the 25 year award where only a Grand Award may be given). In addition to
the traditional awards, the Sustainable Design Award could be presented to
a project from any category (except the new 25 year award); and a project
can win both a Design Award and a Sustainable Design Award (except the
new 25 year award). Only one project will be awarded the 25 Year Award. In
the case of the Design Build Award, a project could win three awards - one
in Design Build, one from one of the five basic categories and a Sustainable
Design Award. All awards will be presented the evening of Friday, September
20, 2013, at The Island Hotel, Newport Beach, California.
Upon
completion of additional NCMA
required forms, all eligible projects,
winning or non-winning, may be submitted to the National Concrete
Masonry Association Design Awards of Excellence 2013 competition.

factors or advancements/resolutions, etc. of the project. Any “green”
or sustainable features must be stated and explained in greater detail
on the Sustainable Design Award Submittal Form. Clearly explain the
selection/use of concrete masonry units for the project. If submitting
for a Sustainable Design Award, provide in 300 words or less, a detailed
explanation of the sustainable design strategies utilized in the design of
this project. Specify LEED, CHPS, or other qualifying ratings achieved by
this project. Please attach any documents supporting performance claims.
Include all descriptive data in Word format on the photo CD.
Include a minimum
of 8 and a maximum of 12 high-quality color digital project photos and digital
site and floor plans (JPGs) on a Windows XP
compatible CD*. All images must have a minimum print quality of 300 dpi
at 5”x 7”. Include in the binder pages 8” x 10” or 8.5” x 11” color copies
of the same photos, site plan and floor plan(s) that are on the CD. All
photographs submitted must include a signed release form that has been
placed in the back pocket of the binder. Entrant must provide clear rights
to photos, and plans for incorporation into CMACN, AIACC and NCMA

approval to submit the project(s) for this and any stated future uses.
*See Submittal Binder instructions for 25 Year Award photo requirements
which are slightly different.
Of the 8 minimum
required photos, include a photo of each exposed side of the building or project
environment. One additional photo showing the context of
each exposed side of the building. For a group of buildings, include one photo,
which sufficiently illustrates the completed project, including its relationship
to its environment. A minimum of two photos are required to show the interior
aspects of the building. If concrete masonry is a primarily interior building
material, supply images to illustrate the product’s use. Include digital and
printed image of the site plan and floor plan(s).
Binders and all
binder materials become the property of CMACN and will not be returned unless
a written request is submitted along with the binder.
A 20” x 20” photo
board for each project entered must be provided by the submitting architect as
outlined in the specifications on the “Photo Board for
Concrete Masonry Design Award Entries” sheet. It must be submitted at the
same time as the completed binder. Photo boards of all entries become the
property of CMACN and will not be returned to the submitting architect. |
