Quality Concrete Construction Awards Program

In 2000 the CAWV and WV Division of Highways created the “Quality Concrete Construction” Awards Program.

The program is designed to recognize and reward superior workmanship and performance, stimulate competition among contractors and ensure that quality construction in the highway program remains a focus of the industry to the ultimate benefit of the public.

Categories include structural work and flat work. The structural project category is comprised of bridges, retaining walls, precast concrete or any other specialty structural concrete construction.  

The Concrete Quality Excellence Awards are presented each year at the State Meeting held during Expo.

The CAWV would like to congratulate Ahern, a Division of Kokosing Construction, on winning the Structural Work Category for the Keyser-McCoole Bridge. Flat Work Category awards were presented to Hi-Way Paving, Inc. for their work on Route 48/Corridor H in Grant County and Golden Triangle Construction Company for the Charles Town Route 9 Bypass. For more information, see the May/June issue of West Virginia Construction News.

Entries are accepted in the Winter months. Forms will be available here during the application period.

Judges: Todd Rumbaugh, director of Contract Administration - WV Division of Highways;  Mike Mance, cement and concrete unit supervisor - WV Division of Highways; and Bert Buchanan, bridge engineer - Federal Highway Administration
