Leaders at design firms around the region are reporting that construction activity is on the rise again after a mixed 2016.
Billings have grown for the first four months of 2017 for companies across the Southern U.S., according to the American Institute of Architects. The association’s monthly Architecture Billings Index (ABI) of 55.3 for April also indicates that firms in the South are reporting readings that are two to four points ahead of the other three regions. ABI scores above 50 indicate an increase in billings from the previous month.
