US Construction Industry Report 2025: Output to Decline by 2.7% in Real Terms This Year Due to Contraction in Commercial, Industrial and Residential Sectors - Forecast to 2029 - ResearchAndMarkets.com

The "The US Construction Market Size, Trends, and Forecasts by Sector - Commercial, Industrial, Infrastructure, Energy and Utilities, Institutional and Residential Market Analysis to 2029 (Q3 2025)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

US's construction industry to record an annual decline of 2.7% in real terms in 2025, owing to contraction across three key construction sectors: commercial, industrial and residential.

The decline can be predominately attributed to the impacts of the US President's global trade policy, which has contributed to not only rising construction input costs, but also falling builders' sentiment and rising uncertainty. After tariffs were initially being absorbed by contractors or masked through inflated inventories, trade measures are now causing negative impacts throughout the economy, disrupting supply chains and delaying project delivery.

Over the remainder of the forecast period, the construction industry is expected to record an annual growth of 1.9% during 2026-29, supported by investments in the development of AI infrastructure. The rapidly expanding industry is expected to increase construction demand for both Data centers, as well as power generation infrastructure and transmission line.

In addition, other sectors such as transport infrastructure and the manufacturing sector are also expected to expand. For example, the manufacturing sector will be bolstered by the American Manufacturing Program (AMP), which was launched by the American technology company, Apple, in early-August 2025. As part of this program, Apple has announced an investment plan of $600 billion for the expansion of its operations by 2029. This marks an increase from the initial $500 billion announced in February 2025.
