2012 Book of Giants
Glimmers
The nation's largest
mechanical contractors
are seeing glimmers of
hope, with 2012 revenues
expected to return
to 2010 levels after a
disappointing 2011.
Auto, steel, chemical
and glass plants are
reviving in the Midwest,
universities are building
dorms and labs, hospitals
are expanding and data
centers are going up.
Some private financing
has even returned
to the market.
Our complete Book
of Giants coverage
begins on page 14.
