Competition / Market:

Steel framers are navigating a mixed but resilient landscape as structural steel erection tracks surging demand in select nonresidential segments, even while traditional office and multifamily pipelines weaken. Warehouse, data center and public infrastructure work have helped offset softness in speculative office towers, enabling many framing contractors to keep crews busy despite higher material and borrowing costs. At the same time, rising labor costs and volatile steel pricing have pushed contractors to rethink how and where they add value. Overall, industry revenue has been increasing at a CAGR of 2.3% over the past five years, including an expected increase of 1.2% in 2026 to reach an estimated $27.4 billion.
