Construction in the US – Key Trends and Opportunities to 2018
Synopsis
 This report provides detailed market analysis, information and insights into the US construction industry including:
 The US construction industry’s growth prospects by market, project type and type of construction activity
 Analysis of equipment, material and service costs across each project type within US
 Critical insight into the impact of industry trends and issues, and the risks and opportunities they present to participants in the US
construction industry
 Analyzing the profiles of the leading operators in the US construction industry.
Summary
 The US construction industry recorded a nominal CAGR of 0.61% during the review period. Over the forecast period, its output is
expected to record a CAGR of 7.12%. This growth will be driven by the recovering economy and increased government spending on
public infrastructure. The infrastructure and residential construction markets collectively accounted for 64.8% of the total
construction industry in 2013, and this is expected to grow over the forecast period due to both increased investment in upgrading
aging infrastructure, and strong demand in the housing sector. Moreover, factors such as government efforts to promote exports and
innovation, and improve healthcare, as well as a decline in the mortgage delinquency rate will also support the industry’s growth.

Construction in the US – Key Trends and Opportunities to 2018
Key highlights
 The US construction industry has been in an expansionary phase since early 2011, having suffered greatly over the
preceding three years. According to the US Census Bureau and Department of Commerce, construction output
value increased from US$857 in 2012 to US$898.4 in 2013. In 2013, the values of private and public construction
increased by 8.5% and 2.8% respectively, relative to 2012.
 The housing market is also improving. According to the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA), the mortgage
delinquency rate in 2013 was 6.4% (a decline of 70 basis points over 2012), and is approaching towards the
historical average of 5%, while the foreclosure declined by 33% during the same period. These factors will support
the growth in the construction industry over the forecast period.
 According to the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), one out of nine bridges is deficient, 42% of major
urban highways are congested and 32% of major roads are in poor condition. In a bid to upgrade the country’s
road transport, the 2013 budget includes a Surface Transportation Reauthorization Bill, worth US$476 billion for a
period of six years, which will finance all highway, bridges and mass transit construction projects until 2018.
