Established in 1991, METALCON is the largest international event in the metal construction industry.  Unique in both its service and show management to this industry, METALCON is the only annual tradeshow and conference devoted entirely to the application of metal in industrial, institutional, light commercial and residential projects.  Its success is based on three key components: education, exhibits and interactive, learning opportunities.  METALCON is produced by PSMJ Resources, Inc., and sponsored by the Metal Construction Association.  For more information, visit www.metalcon.com or call 800-537-7765.

METALCON Project Photo Competition

METALCON launches a metal in design and construction project photo competition at this year’s annual conference and tradeshow in Tampa from Wednesday, Oct. 6 - Friday, Oct. 8.   

Architects, designers, contractors, manufacturers and owners are invited to submit high-quality photos of their best, coolest, most interesting and inspiring projects that feature metal in the interior OR exterior design in one of the following categories: 

• Roofs 
• Walls 
• Interiors 
• Ornamental/Architectural Features 

A panel of judges comprised of the Metal Construction Association (MCA) council chairs and other metal construction and design industry experts will determine one winner in each of the four categories with one grand-prize winner.  Entries will be judged based on the use of metal in design and construction communicated through photographs, not based on photo composition. Entrants may submit multiple projects.  Each project requires its own entry form and photo. Submissions including photo and entry form must be received by September 2. 

Top entries will be displayed in the METALCON Metal in Architecture Gallery at the Tampa Convention Center during the show.  Photos selected for inclusion in the gallery will be automatically entered to win. All winners will be announced at METALCON, and the grand-prize winner will be awarded a $1000 cash prize.

To enter, register your project at www.metalcon.com or go here. Project photos must be in color and high-resolution; download the specs sheet for more information.
