61% of them are new buildings and 39% 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 structural steel is bought early, the 69 projects permitted in the last 90 days are the ones to call first; 96% of the count is that recent. Overland Park ranks 15 of 25 markets Builtie covers for structural steel, behind Tulsa (100 projects).
A project counts when its permit was issued in the last four years, the build is still inside the stage when structural steel is awarded, and the job is big enough to be worth quoting: at least $25k of structural steel work. Trade sub-permits are grouped into their parent project, so this is a count of projects, not permits.
