Excellence & Inspiration
The Metal Construction Association annually awards member companies involved in the construction of outstanding building projects that use metal in significant and innovative ways. A panel of architects choses the award recipients from submitted projects based on overall appearance, significance of metal in the project, innovative use of metal, and the role of metal in achieving project objectives. Awards are presented in eight categories: overall excellence; residential; roofing; education (colleges and universities); education (primary and secondary); institutional; municipal; and commercial. The 2020 award recipients listed below were announced at MCA’s 2021 Winter Meeting. See the 2019 Award Winners >
