After initial viewing, jury members expressed individual opinions followed by group discussion. Members assigned scores out of 10 to each design. Designs receiving at least 2 scores of 7 or above (one-third of jury) advanced to the final round of 16. Two building mechanical designs were also evaluated separately for the Super Pipe Special Prize.
