The Rescheck National Construction Index is a composite measure of construction activity across the United States. By synthesizing data from building permits, construction starts, and total project values, this index provides a high-level snapshot of the industry’s health.

  • Construction Starts Score: A rating out of 10 indicating the volume of new projects initiated.

  • Average Project Value: The mean dollar amount invested in new construction.

  • Average Square Footage: The mean size of new residential and commercial footprints.
