Concept explainers
The names of the largest contractors along with their rankings reported by ENR in the categories of Heavy and highway, non-residential building, and multiunit housing. Find whether these contractors are the largest in the previous year.
Explanation of Solution
Refer to the Engineering News Record 2019.
Show the names of the largest contractors along with their rankings reported by ENR as shown in Table 1.
Contractors Name
| Rank as per ENR 2019 | Rank as per ENR 2018 |
Bechtel, Reston, Va. | 1 | 1 |
Fluor Corp., Irving, Texas | 2 | 2 |
Turner Corp., New York, N.Y. | 3 | 3 |
AECOM, Los Angeles, Calif. | 4 | 4 |
The Whiting-Turner Contracting Co., Baltimore, Md. | 5 | 8 |
Refer Table 1.
The table shows the list of the largest contractors as per Engineering News Record 2019.
Compare the rank of these contractors in the year 2019 and 2018.
The top 4 contractors maintained their position in both 2018 and 2019, whereas the contactor The Whiting-Turner Contracting Co, has shown significant growth and attained 5th rank in 2019 when compared to 8th rank in 2018.
