64% of them are new buildings and 36% are renovations, additions or alterations: a mix of ground-up builds, where the builder decides, and renovations, where the owner or designer often does. Because framing is bought early, the 23 projects permitted in the last 90 days are the ones to call first; 92% of the count is that recent. Red Deer ranks 24 of 25 markets Builtie covers for framing, behind Fayetteville, Arkansas (33 projects).
A project counts when its permit was issued in the last four years, the build is still inside the stage when framing is awarded, and the job is big enough to be worth quoting: at least $15k of framing work. Trade sub-permits are grouped into their parent project, so this is a count of projects, not permits.
