  2. The Construction Industry is currently in a transition state. Forces from both the demand as well as the supply side have made it necessary to re-examine the strategies for growth and competitiveness. Spring 2007

  3. Engineering and Construction Industry is Concerned with two sets of issues: • How demand for its output is generated and affected by modern societies. • How supply system is shaped to cope with changing demand. Spring 2007

  4. TOTAL CONSTRUCTION $ Bil. Source: U.S. Department of Commerce Annual Value of Construction Put-in-place in current dollars, 2004 Data is preliminary Spring 2007

  5. Private Constructionin 2004Total $999.76 Billion Source: Dept. of Commerce. Construction Put-In-Place. Details May Not Add Total Since All Types of Construction are not Shown Separately. Spring 2007
