"The CEMEX building award has became now one of the most important events for the construction industry in Mexico. Its growth has fostered the development of a culture of competitiveness in both the conception and the construction of concrete structures." "Each one of the finalist projects of the XIII CEMEX building award is distinguished by its innovating ideas and by the quality of their execution. They were selected from among 214 competing projects which represent the pinnacle of the construction industry in the country. The jury of the competition, which this time included international guests, worked in teams of three in evaluating the best buildings for each of its eight categories." "For the first time in its long history, this edition of the award includes four international projects. Chosen for their outstanding value by a special committee, they are published in recognition to their excellence and that of the construction culture of their countries. It is a contribution to the intercultural exchange that is at the heart of globalization."--BOOK JACKET.
