< DIV > According to a study by U.S. Industry Information Resources, spending on major projects in U.S. cement manufacturing plants will exceed 2006 figures, increasing by 10-25%, with 125 projects totaling $2.7 billion.
< DIV > At present, there are 65 projects under construction since 2006, with the total amount of projects exceeding 1.8 billion. The scope of work involves basic plant construction, new cement import terminals, major maintenance and closure operations.
< DIV > Industry Information Resources calculates an industry-wide confidence index of 70% in the United States (this confidence index is based on an analysis of historical spending trends over the previous 58 months). With the completion of several major expansion projects this year, such as Lafarge North America (US $420 million), California Portland Cement (US $400 million), Brazil Unicem USA (US $262 million), and Ash Grove Cement (US $250 million), It is expected that the project expenditure in the coming year will exceed the level of 2006.
< DIV > In 2006, the highest investment in cement works was in the West Coast and Southeast regions. In Florida, three large cement capacity enhancement projects are still under construction.
< DIV > Industry Information Resources said that although engineering activity in the Southeast and West Coast regions of the United States will continue to grow at a high rate in 2007, the Rocky Mountains region is believed to be the fastest growing region. According to Industry Information Resources, there are expected to be 16 projects in the Rockies region in 2007, with a total investment of about $643 million, while the number of projects in the Southeast region is expected to reach 20, with a total investment of about $428 million.
