The construction market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides construction market statistics, including the construction industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a construction market share, detailed construction market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the construction industry. This construction market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The construction market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $15192.71 billion in 2023 to $15971.45 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.1%. The expansion witnessed during the historical period can be credited to the surge in infrastructure development, escalating renovation endeavors, rapid growth within the elderly demographic, and the upsurge in domestic manufacturing.
The construction market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $19856.65 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6%. Forecasted growth is driven by urbanization, population expansion, government backing, industrialization, and the emergence of smart cities. Anticipated trends involve automated construction tools, high-performance equipment, digital platform integration, AI and machine learning adoption, strategic partnerships, innovation networks, fully electric construction equipment, technological advancements, and suburban area development.
The anticipated surge in global construction activity is poised to drive growth in the construction market in the coming years. Noteworthy emerging markets, such as China, Brazil, India, Saudi Arabia, and Indonesia, have exhibited robust construction undertakings. This heightened construction activity generates demand for both construction services and materials, thereby bolstering and expanding the construction market. A case in point is the data from February 2023, where the Office for National Statistics, a UK-based statistics authority, reported a 5.6% annual increase in construction output in 2022 compared to 2021. This follows a record surge of 12.8% in 2021, highlighting the significant contribution of rapid construction growth to the construction market.
The expansion of urbanization is projected to be a key driver for the growth of the construction market. Urbanization, denoting the escalating growth and sprawl of cities accompanied by population migration from rural to urban areas, relies heavily on construction to provide essential infrastructure and buildings for a burgeoning urban populace. Illustratively, data from April 2022, as reported by the World Economic Forum, a Switzerland-based independent international organization, indicates that over 4.3 billion people, constituting 55% of the world's population, resided in urban settings. This figure is expected to climb to 80% by 2050, underscoring the pivotal role of increasing urbanization in propelling the construction market.
Building construction firms are increasingly embracing green construction techniques to erect energy-efficient structures while concurrently mitigating construction costs. Green construction involves utilizing sustainable building materials and construction processes to create environmentally friendly buildings with enhanced energy efficiency. The World Green Building Trends Survey indicates that approximately 60% of global construction firms are engaged in green construction projects. Certifications such as Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) empower construction companies to craft high-performance, sustainable residential and commercial buildings, offering various advantages from tax deductions to marketing opportunities. The adoption of sustainable construction materials, such as natural paints and recycled steel beams, is becoming widespread in the UK. Additionally, green construction practices such as cross-ventilation for a more natural environment, the use of green construction software such as Construction Suite for ensuring green compliance, and the Green Globes management tool are gaining traction in the construction industry. Noteworthy companies implementing green construction techniques include Turner Construction Co, Clark Group, AECOM, Hensel Phelps, and Holder Construction.
Major players in the construction market are actively pursuing innovative technologies, particularly automation, to elevate project efficiency, curtail costs, and attain a competitive advantage. An automated construction service center, serving as a centralized facility, leverages automation and technology to streamline diverse aspects of construction projects, encompassing scheduling, resource allocation, and communication. Notably, in July 2023, Tata Steel, a leading provider in the Indian construction solutions industry, unveiled its inaugural fully automated construction service center in Odisha. This pioneering initiative aims to revolutionize reinforcement applications in the construction sector, meeting the escalating infrastructure demand in Odisha through a commitment to sustainability, precision, quality, and expeditious construction practices.
