As a result, stronger planning activity was widespread in August, with most nonresidential sectors seeing growth.\u201d<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134245417&quot;:false}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Commercial planning saw another month of broad-based improvements. After slowing down in recent years, warehouse projects have gained momentum over the last three months. Hotels and retail planning have been steadily expanding as well. Data centers continued to dominate large project activity, but the rate at which planning projects entered the queue in August moderated after several months of very strong growth. On the institutional side, healthcare was the primary driver of this past month\u2019s expansion, followed by recreational planning. In August, the DMI was 31% higher than in August of 2023. The commercial segment was up 42% from year-ago levels, while the institutional segment was up 8% over the same period.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134245417&quot;:false}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">A total of 30 projects valued at $100 million or more entered planning throughout August. The largest commercial projects included the $500 million portion of the Tract Data Center Complex in Yuma, Arizona, and the $462 million KDC Data Center Campus in Irving, Texas. The largest institutional projects to enter planning were the $440 million Geisinger Medical Center Tower in Danville, Pennsylvania and the $240 million academic and research facility at the University of Cincinnati in Ohio.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134245417&quot;:false}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The DMI is a monthly measure of the value of nonresidential building projects going into planning, shown to lead construction spending for nonresidential buildings by a full year.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134245417&quot;:false}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-26202\" src=\"https:\/\/essential.construction\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2024\/09\/IMAGE-2-DMI-Graph-300x180.png\" alt=\"IMAGE 2 DMI Graph\" width=\"715\" height=\"429\"  \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<p>###<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Dodge Construction Network<\/strong><br \/>Dodge Construction Network is a solutions technology company providing an unmatched offering of data, analytics, and industry-spanning relationships to generate the most powerful source of information, knowledge, insights, and connections in the commercial construction industry.
