2018 SCAPA Quality Pavement Award!
The South Carolina Asphalt Pavement Association is soliciting nominations for the 2018 SCAPA Quality Pavement Awards. To be considered for an award, you must have substantially completed work on a project by October 31, 2018.
More information about awards and forms can be found at
Each SCAPA contractor member, SCDOT district and SC local government office is allowed to submit a maximum of three projects for consideration.- The nominees in the SCDOT Projects Category will be judged based on a scale of 70% technical and 30% overall appearance of the finished project.
- Those projects nominated in the Quality Pavement Category (non-SCDOT projects) will be scored on a scale of 50% narrative/technical and 50% overall appearance of the finished project.
There will be a panel of judges from organizations such as APWA, ACEC, SCDOT, FHWA or state educational institutions that will rate all nominated projects. The panel will narrow the entries down to the top-rated projects with the best technical score and then conduct a visual evaluation of those projects. Of the projects selected for a visual evaluation, the judges will then select the winning projects to be awarded a SCAPA Quality Pavement Award based on both the technical score and the aesthetics & overall appearance of the project. The winners will be announced at the 2019 SCAPA Winter Conference on January 17, 2019.
In order to be considered for a SCAPA Quality Pavement Award please submit the following information regarding your project:
- SCAPA Quality Pavement Award Nomination Form
- Project Location Map
- High-resolution digital photos of the project (aerial photos and videos can be submitted as well, but it is strongly recommended to avoid submitting aerial-only media). Nominees must submit the SCAPA Photo Release Form with the 2018 SCAPA Quality Pavement Award Nomination Form
- Any additional lab and field data associated with the project
- Any other supporting documentation that you would like to submit for consideration by the judges
Please take this opportunity to assess the paving projects your organization has constructed and submit those you deem worthy of a SCAPA Quality Pavement Award. Owners please consider partnering with contractors when submitting projects to avoid duplicate submissions. Please nominate only a maximum of three (3) projects. Submit all data via email to SCAsphaltAwards@gmail.com or mail information on a disc or jump drive to SC Asphalt Pavement Association, PO Box 11448, Columbia, SC 29211.
The deadline for submissions is by 5 PM, Friday, November 2, 2018.
