Construction Costs Webinar: Things Are Looking Up—but for Whom?

Contractors keep getting sideswiped by rising materials prices. Early this year, diesel, steel and copper prices all soared. Recently, plastics, asphalt and gypsum costs have jumped. Meanwhile, contractors have largely held the line on bid prices. What will be next to climb? What might back down? On August 3, 2011, join AGC’s Chief Economist Ken Simonson, John Cross of the American Institute of Steel Construction, and Jason Schenkler of Prestige Economics, LLC, to  find out where they think prices are headed, what to watch for, and why. Take this opportunity to earn Continuing Education Credits and understand how global political, economic and market changes affect raw materials for construction and learn about the connections between commodities and prices of construction products. Also, see how the current economic state of the construction industry affects materials costs in varying degrees and gain valuable knowledge to be able to identify future trends and danger signs for the construction industry and the implications for materials prices.
