    <title>2022 DCC Award Winners</title> 
    <link>https://ascconline.org/Home/News/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/285/2022-DCC-Award-Winners</link> 
    <description>October 5, 2022 -- The Decorative Concrete Council (DCC), a specialty council of the American Society of Concrete Contractors (ASCC), St. Louis, Mo., has announced the winners of its 14th annual Decorative Concrete International Awards competition.&amp;nbsp; The winners were recognized at ASCC&amp;rsquo;s Annual Conference, September 29, 2022, in Cleveland, OH.

Colorado Hardscapes, Greenwood Village, CO won the WOW! Award, best overall project, for the USAFA Air Gardens, a restoration project to return the Air Force Academy&amp;rsquo;s Air Gardens, what had been the focal point of the cadet parade grounds, to its former glory.

The area is a 600-foot grid of concrete, landscaping, and pools. After 46 years laying dormant, Colorado Hardscapes was tasked with replacing the Air Garden&amp;rsquo;s walkways, bridges, and pool copings, and refurbishing the pools themselves.

35,175 SF of specialty concrete was developed with white cement and white aggregate to compliment the white marble bands, and to contrast with the pools finished with charcoal plaster.

Over a mile of exposed finished vertical edges of copings and walkways, and 15 bridges, required innovative forming and finishing techniques. The layout throughout the Academy grounds is at multiples of seven, resulting in having to sawcut all paving into 21-inch &amp;ldquo;tiles.&amp;rdquo;

    <title>DCC/MAC Community Project - Life Remodeled</title> 
    <link>https://ascconline.org/Home/News/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/128/DCCMAC-Community-Project--Life-Remodeled</link> 
    <description>ST. LOUIS, MO June 10 &amp;ndash; Volunteers from the Decorative Concrete Council (DCC) and the Manufacturers&amp;rsquo; Advisory Council (MAC) of the American Society of Concrete Contractors (ASCC) traveled to Detroit, MI March 11-12 to complete a community project for the Durfee Innovation Society.

Paul Albanelli, Albanelli Cement Contractors, Livonia, MI was the project manager for the installation at the Life Remodeled building. The project scope was to apply a four &amp;ndash; color metallic epoxy coating to resemble water, to a concrete slab in an old pool that had been filled in, with special effects on steps and a ramp. The revived area will serve as an event space.

Materials were donated by The Euclid Chemical Co., Increte, and H &amp;amp; C Decorative Concrete Products (Sherwin-Williams). Labor was provided by Albanelli Cement Contractors, Birmingham Decorative Concrete, Leeds, AL; BORIDE Engineered Abrasives, Traverse City, MI; Concrete Marketing Crew, Parkland, FL; Concrete Mystique Engraving, Nashville, TN; Hyde Concrete, Pasadena, MD; Innovative Chemical Products, Ft. Worth, TX; Modern Concrete, East Providence, RI; Sundek National Accounts, Arlington, TX; and Transhield/TopCure, Elkhart, IN.

The Durfee Innovation Society exists to create substantial and impactful opportunities for Detroit children, families, and single adults while advancing collaboration among eight major sectors (arts, business, education, faith &amp;ndash; based, government, human services, media, and philanthropy) in the city and its surrounding suburbs.

Life Remodeled focuses on the intentional and equitable revitalization of Detroit neighborhoods distinguished by significant need and hope, forming long-term relationships and partnerships.

The DCC is the only professional organization dedicated to focusing on the issues, trends and work of the decorative concrete industry, and to meeting the needs of the contractors who pursue this specialty market.

Made up of decorative concrete contractors that install decorative concrete, manufacturers, and other interested parties, the mission of the DCC is &amp;ldquo;Advancing Decorative Concrete Contractors Through Education and Networking.&amp;rdquo;

The MAC board advises ASCC on matters relating to associate membership and suggests methods of adding value to all membership opportunities.
