NAICS 236210 industrial building construction obligations

Building construction, not nonbuilding structures

NAICS 236210 is industrial building construction. NAICS 234930, on a neighboring hub, is industrial nonbuilding structure construction. The two titles sound similar and are not the same tag. The $9,674,266,964.58 on this page is the building-construction code only.

One thousand four hundred forty-two awards produced a mean of about $6.7 million. That average can represent a warehouse, a plant building, a renovation vehicle, or a mix. The packet does not list square footage or project names. Those details, if present in USAspending, live on the industry page’s award rows.

Commercial and institutional building construction uses other 236 codes. A laboratory tagged as an institutional building would not add to this industrial-building total even if the structure looks industrial to a passerby. Principal-purpose NAICS controls the bucket.

Construction NAICS codes split buildings from nonbuilding structures and from civil lines. Industrial building construction (236210) is the building tag at $9,674,266,964.58 on 1,442 awards. Industrial nonbuilding structure construction (234930) is a different six-digit class with its own hub. Water and sewer construction (237110) is a civil-line tag. This page is industrial buildings only.

Construction obligations on multi-year jobs

Building contracts often obligate a large share at award, then pay through progress invoices. Outlays trail obligations on open sites. Treating $9.7 billion as construction already completed and paid would overstate cash and understate remaining work.

The 1,442-award count is not a building count. One award can cover a campus of structures; many awards can cover change orders grouped as USAspending defines awards. Dividing dollars by awards is not a cost per building.

Architectural services (541310) measure design fees, not put-in-place construction. A design-build industrial building will carry one principal NAICS. If that code is 236210, design line items on the same action sit in this $9.7 billion. If the officer chose 541310, construction line items on that action would not.

Related construction NAICS stay separate

Water and sewer line construction, highway work, and nonbuilding industrial structures have other codes. Architectural services (541310) measure design, not the 236210 build tag. Those hubs are not subsets of $9,674,266,964.58.

Infrastructure grants to non-federal recipients often lack NAICS and do not enter this industry total even when the project is an industrial building.

How to use the 236210 hub

Keep the building-versus-nonbuilding distinction in view when ranking construction codes on the all-industries index. Open the industrial building construction industry page for award-level agency and recipient fields. The packet facts remain $9.7 billion and 1,442 awards.

This guide does not add locations or completion status because those fields are not in the facts object.

Tagging limits on construction actions

A mixed plant job can be tagged 236210 (building) or 234930 (nonbuilding) depending on what the officer treats as principal. SpendingVault does not recode that choice. The published sum is the 236210 tagged total.

USAspending extract updates will move $9,674,266,964.58 and 1,442.

Buildings versus structures in the industry index

Searchers who type “industrial construction” may land on 236210 or 234930. Check the six-digit code. Buildings and nonbuilding structures are different tagged totals. Pair this hub’s $9.7 billion with its award count of 1,442 so concentration is visible next to the dollar rank.

Open the industrial building construction industry page for award-level agency and recipient fields. No square footage, no completion status, and no outlay total appear in the packet. Assistance without NAICS is excluded. USAspending.gov is the source for the $9.7 billion obligation sum.

Industrial building construction at $9,674,266,964.58 on 1,442 awards is a building tag, not a nonbuilding-structure tag and not a design-fee tag. The mean of about $6.7 million is not a cost per building. Square footage is not in the packet.

Architectural services and water-and-sewer construction answer different questions. Open the industrial building construction industry page for award-level fields. Cite USAspending.gov. Assistance without NAICS stays outside the $9.7 billion. Progress payments on open sites mean obligations can exceed cash already paid.

One thousand four hundred forty-two awards at $9,674,266,964.58 describe a construction book of industrial buildings, not a census of every federal warehouse. Design fees tagged 541310 and civil water lines tagged 237110 sit on other hubs. Progress invoices on open sites are why the obligation total is not a cash-paid total. Cite USAspending.gov and keep the award count next to the dollars.

Questions

How much is obligated under NAICS 236210?

Industrial building construction contracts in USAspending show $9,674,266,964.58 in obligations across 1,442 awards. That is a building-construction tag, not the nonbuilding industrial-structure code 234930. The total is obligations, not outlays. Assistance without NAICS is excluded. Open the industry page for the award rows behind $9,674,266,964.58 and the count of 1,442.

How is 236210 different from NAICS 234930?

236210 is industrial building construction. 234930 is industrial nonbuilding structure construction. They are separate six-digit codes with separate SpendingVault hubs. This page’s $9.7 billion does not include 234930 dollars. Use each industry page for its own tagged total. Pair each hub’s dollars with its award count so concentration is visible next to the dollar rank.

What is the average industrial-building award?

Dividing $9,674,266,964.58 by 1,442 awards yields about $6.7 million. That mean is not a cost per building. Renovations, new construction, and multi-building vehicles share the average. The packet has no square-footage field and no median. The industry table lists award-level amounts; this packet has no square-footage field to convert the mean into a cost per building.

Do construction grants appear here?

Usually no. The aggregate is built from USAspending contract awards tagged NAICS 236210. Assistance awards often omit NAICS and therefore do not enter $9.7 billion. Program pages are the better surface for grant-funded industrial buildings. Program pages remain the better surface for grant-funded industrial buildings that never received NAICS 236210.
