CAROL STREAM, Ill. (PRWEB) August 23, 2019 -- At the fifth annual 2019 Women in Construction dinner Constructech celebrated and gave awards to women construction, which were initially announced in June, and the first annual Women Heavy Equipment Operator Awards, which were announced in April.

“The evening always exceeds my expectations when we have a chance to connect and learn from some of the best in the construction industry,”

The dinner, which was held at the DoubleTree by Hilton Chicago in Arlington Heights, IL., followed the Constructech Technology Days event, and is designed for men and women to take time out of their busy schedule to honor their colleagues and loved ones for a job well done in the construction industry. This year, Constructech extended its reach to honor women all across the industry and the world through both the Women in Construction and the Female Heavy Equipment Operator awards.

The Women in Construction list is comprised of some of the most successful women working within the construction community who are taking advantage technology and represent many of the largest, most innovative construction companies in the country, while the Women Heavy Equipment Operator Awards honors the 10 most successful women who are working in the construction and mining industries.

The 2019 Women in Construction are:
