Construction Paper Competition
Showcase your technical expertise and industry knowledge in this national level technical presentation. Focus on technology, productivity and execution in modern construction. Total prize pool worth ₹1,00,000 with individual category prizes (₹10k/₹5k/₹3k).
About the Competition
The Construction Paper Competition is organised to bridge the gap between academia and the realities of construction sites. Students from Civil, Mechanical, Electrical and Architecture streams are invited to explore real-world problems, gather data from field visits, interview industry professionals and use modern digital tools like BIM and simulation. Our aim is to encourage practical, execution-focused research that can have a tangible impact on the construction sector.
This competition emphasises originality, clarity and relevance. All entries will be screened for plagiarism and must present authentic findings. A total prize pool of ₹1,00,000 is on offer across five categories, with each category rewarding the top three teams: ₹10,000 for first place, ₹5,000 for second and ₹3,000 for third.
Finalists will be selected by our expert panel and invited to present their work online. Certificates will be provided to all participants.
