2023 winners
Recipients of the 2023 awards were honoured at the 19th Annual ASA Awards Banquet held in conjunction with ASA’s 2024 ASA Shotcrete Convention and Technology Conference in March this year.
Speaking at the event, Charles Hanskat, executive director of the ASA, said: "Our Lakeway convention provided an ideal backdrop for recognizing our awardees, presenting shotcrete knowledge, conducting committee business, and fostering connections among attendees at the 2024 Shotcrete Convention and Technology Conference.
“Our Awards Banquet, the convention finale, spotlighted our member companies' shotcrete projects from around the globe that exemplify the best qualities of shotcrete placement. These projects confirm the benefits of shotcrete placement in concrete construction, including enhanced sustainability, architectural creativity, increased efficiency, and high quality. All with concrete’s inherent durability and serviceability."
