The PCI Regional Design Awards recognize impressive achievements of the use of precast and prestressed concrete in construction projects each year. The awards are chosen by an anonymous board made up of other PCI region members. The program highlights how designers are using precast and prestressed concrete in construction to achieve sustainable, cost-effective, resilient, and aesthetically pleasing projects. These projects showcase that while there are many materials that can be used for construction projects, precast and prestressed concrete is a leader in the industry.
