On Tuesday, May 23, 2017, professionals in the AEC industry will gather for the annual Chicago Building Congress Merit Awards Night dinner at the Marriott Magnificent Mile.

The event, hosted by the Chicago Building Congress (CBC), celebrates exceptional Chicagoland building industry projects completed within the last three years. Finalists are selected through an application process, followed by a group interview conducted by the CBC Awards committee to determine the award category winners. All projects are judged on distinctive/functional design, quality of construction, impact of the project on the community, and safety record.

What sets these awards apart is how project teams across multiple disciplines join together, sometimes even involving owners, to advocate for work they truly believe positively impacts the community.

This year, Eriksson Engineering Associates, Ltd. (EEA), was honored to act as consultants on the following nominated projects:

• Infrastructure Construction
• QTS Data Center
• New Construction Suburbs
• Harper College – Building D and Amphitheater
• Amita Health Cancer Institute & Outpatient Center

Our firm would like to congratulate all of the CBC Merit Awards 2017 finalists and we look forward to being a part of this important industry event.
