The Modular Building Institute’s Awards of Distinction Contest recognizes the best in commercial modular building design and construction.
This year’s contest garnered 147 entries, a 40% increase in nominees over last year, with modular buildings as diverse as a refurbished three-story supportive housing facility from a 2010 Winter Olympics Athletes Village, to a 35,620 sq. ft., green relocatable school complex installed in just 60 days.
For this year's contest, MBI member companies competed in the following categories: Permanent Modular, Temporary Modular, Renovated Reuse, Marketing Pieces, and Green Building Design.
The volunteer judging pool was comprised of Robert Cassidy, Editor-in-Chief, Building Design + Construction Magazine; Mohamed Al-Hussein, PhD, PE, Industrial Research Chair, University of Alberta; Dru Meadows, AIA, Principal, theGreenTeam, Inc.; Lorenz Schoff, PE, President, Energy Efficient Solutions; Robert Kobet, AIA, LEED, Faculty, President, Sustainaissance International; David Corson, Publisher, Commercial Construction Magazine; Kelsey Mullen, LEED AP, Director of Residential Business Development, U.S. Green Building Council; and Ryan E. Smith, AIA, Director of the Integrated Technology in Architecture Center, University of Utah College of Architecture + Planning.
The judges scored building entries on a number of criteria including architectural excellence, technical innovation, cost effectiveness, energy efficiency, and calendar days to complete, while marketing pieces were judged on strategy, implementation, and quantifiable results.
