Civil Engineering July 2022 33 (under 35 years) of SAICE who is em- ployed in or associated with civil engi- neering construction and who, in the opinion of the SAICE PMCD, is clearly innovative and has displayed the po- tential to meaningfully contribute to civil engineering construction within the previous three years. Q Q Candidates must be registered as a candidate in any category with either ECSA, SACPCMP, PLATO, SACNASP, SACPLAN or ICE. Q Q The PMCD will take into account the achievement of candidates in one or more of the following areas when considering its recommendations: Q Q Active participation in an engi- neering construction unit that achieves high production coupled with a concomitant reduction in cost. Q Q Active participation and/or in- novation in the development and implementation of engineering techniques that have made a significant contribution to the ef- ficiency of part of the construction process or engineering or manage- ment techniques. Q Q Overcoming physical obstacles or solving problems encountered in the planning and execution of construction work. Q Q Contributions resulting in a signifi- cant improvement to the image of construction. Q Q Active participation and/or in- novation in the implementation of socio-economic development, environmental applications or oc- cupational health and safety. Q Q Personal contribution towards the safety of co-workers. Q Q Achieving peer-recognition, internally or externally, for their contribution in construction. This list of considerations is not exhaus- tive and motivation for the award need not be confined to the fields noted above. Nominations and motivations are in- vited from individual members, branches, or divisions, and are to be submitted to the SAICE PMCD.
