Industry Intelligence Factoid
Brought to you by McGraw-Hill Construction

Did you know…
That sustainability policies and green construction practices are no longer a fad.  They have an impact on the industry – both commercial and residential – on a daily basis.  In 2005, green building comprised approximately 2% of the U.S. construction market, including both commercial and residential construction.  That percentage translates to a $10.2 billion market size.  Findings from McGraw-Hill Construction’s market research suggest continued growth for the green building market, with a projected increase of green building to increase to 5% to 10% of the market by 2010.  A projected increase to this percentage translates to between $29 billion and $59 billion, not counting residential remodeling.

For more information on this and other construction industry key trends as outlined by McGraw-Hill Construction in their newest SmartMarket Report entitled, Key Trends in the Construction Industry - 2006, go to http://construction.ecnext.com/coms2/analytics_aia.
