Sixty-two projects from across the United States were submitted for consideration across 10 categories, and submissions were evaluated by a distinguished panel of industry experts. Merit Award winners will now compete for a National Award of Excellence, "Best of" categories and Project of the Year.

"With the continued growth of design-build, we are seeing more impressive projects that are raising the bar for success for design-build teams across the country, pushing the limits of high performance and optimizing triple-bottom line success," DBIA Executive Director/CEO Lisa Washington said.
