Enter the Fulton Awards

The Fulton Awards recognise and honour excellence and innovation in the design and use of concrete. Nominations will include any project/initiative that has been completed in 2017, or substantially completed in 2018. Judging will take place on-site in early February and March 2019. A panel of seasoned industry experts have been selected to travel the country to evaluate each entered project wor- thy of an award. The Adjudication panel will comprise Prof. Mark Alexander, Pres- ident of the Concrete Society; Stephen Humphries, Director, Nyeleti Consulting, and. Daniel van der Merwe, Consultant Architect, PPC. The focus of the awards and the adjudication will be on the mate- rial - concrete, and not on the project as a whole. The Categories for the 2019 Awards are: • Buildings up to three-storey (Residential, schools, commercial, warehouse, industrial, etc.) • Buildings more than three-storey (Hotels, Office Buildings, multi- family housing, etc.) • Infrastructure up to R100-million project value (Bridges, water resources, marine structures, power, transportation structures.)
