Each quarter, Steel Encounters will provide our perspective on the forces shaping the steel joist and deck industry, including construction activity, project backlogs, mill and manufacturer capacity, lead times, pricing trends, and changes in regional demand.

We'll also look beyond the numbers at the trends influencing the market, from evolving building systems and manufacturing technology to project delivery, sustainability, and changing customer expectations.

Lastly, we will explore what makes Steel Encounters different from our culture to our innovation.
