Concrete would be nothin’ without rebar. Engineers have used steel for centuries to help concrete resist tensile as well as compressive forces. Today, reinforcing steel employs 15,000 people at 450 fabricating locations in more than 45 states; moving and placing reinforcing steel employs 75,000 people. Eight million tons are manufactured every year.

Formed in 1924 to develop standards governing design and construction, the Concrete Reinforcing Steel Institute (CRSI) has recognized particularly noteworthy projects for almost four decades. This year, 19 projects exemplify excellence in satisfying owner objectives, problem-solving, maximizing value, using rebar right, and – of course, aesthetics. Twelve entries received an HONORS Award; seven received a Merit Certificate.
