Of the shortlisted 48 entries, eight category winners and a Project of the Year will be selected.
The winners from the Building Conservation, Community Benefit, Design through Innovation and the Regeneration categories will then be invited to represent Scotland and compete against projects from across the rest of the UK, at the overall RICS Awards in London.
At last year's awards, the Scottish National Portrait Gallery received the Project of the Year accolade, with an impressive list of winner across all categories.

This included the Clyde Gateway Regeneration project, which went on to win the UK Regeneration Category at the Grand Final, beating London's Olympic Park.
Commenting on the announcement, Sarah Speirs, Director RICS Scotland, said: "The quality of entries received this year is truly outstanding and clearly demonstrates the fantastic work being carried out by property professionals. There is a wealth and variety of inspirational new projects and regenerated developments and I am sure it will be a challenging judging process."
Judging for the awards will take place during spring 2014 with the RICS Scotland Awards ceremony being held at the Sheraton Grand Hotel & Spa on 24 April 2014.
The RICS Awards UK national ceremony will take place in London in October.
Some of the projects on this year's shortlist include Atria Edinburgh + EICC Expansion, Dundee Waterfront, Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games Athletes' Village, Prime Four Business Park and SSE Hydro.
