A recovery may be coming faster than expected for contractors working in certain construction sectors, according to the recently releasedAutodesk 2021建筑前景。

与其数据的三个月前流行平均水平相比，2020年11月的总投标量增长了15％，在1月份增长了36％，后者在建筑连接的平台上有了历史最高的。

The report is based on aggregated, anonymized bidding data from users of Autodesk BuildingConnected. Data from that network of contractors and construction managers was analyzed by construction economist Edward Zarenski of Construction Analytics and Autodesk's BuildingConnected team. They write in the report that many project types are bouncing back faster than previously expected. BuildingConnected has been providing bidding services since its launch in 2012 and was acquired by Autodesk in 2018. The report also includes data from the U.S. Census Bureau and Dodge Data & Analytics.

Zarenski写道，将添加到建筑连接的项目量和新利18备用网址投标邀请的数量进行比较，竞标活动的激增可能是由于已延迟或重新安排的项目重新启动。

"While it’s not a sign that the construction industry is completely out of the woods, the fact that bidding has not only returned to pre-pandemic levels—but in some cases surpassed those pre-pandemic levels—is a bright spot and suggests the industry is getting back to work," according to the report.
“也就是说，能够预测恢复已经变得越来越细微，尤其是在浏览这个未知领域的同时。”

The report states that the rate of new projects added to BuildingConnected has remained constant during the pandemic, which led Zarenski and the Autodesk BuildingConnected team to the inference that the recent increase activity is linked to project restarts.

预计2021年的全新起步将增加6％。尽管该报告的数据并未声称创建整个美国建筑行业的快照，但超过100万的建筑所有者，总承包商，建筑经理和分包商使用建筑连接的项目竞标。

The report also predicts that new residential starts will increase 4.9% from 2020, nonresidential building starts will increase 3.6% and nonbuilding infrastructure will increase 10.1%.

Most nonresidential buildings markets and residential new starts are forecast to increase 5% in 2021. Health care (expected to increase 9.6%), office buildings (7.4%), and commercial construction (6.6%) are the nonresidential sectors projected to see the largest growth in new starts this year.

运输(37%) and power infrastructure (13.7%) have the strongest projected growth among the non-building infrastructure categories tracked in the report.
