Phase 2 of the Toray Composite Materials America carbon fiber manufacturing expansion in Spartanburg, SC, added 300,000 square feet of new production space to support growing aerospace demand across North America.

Clayco and LJC delivered the project alongside an active chemical facility, requiring careful coordination at every stage. The work included more than 500 ground improvement piers, specialized wastewater systems, an 8-foot-thick mat slab, and 3,800 tons of structural steel, all completed without disrupting ongoing operations.

With safety at the forefront, close collaboration between Clayco, LJC and the ownership group ensured the facility and manufacturing systems functioned seamlessly while meeting key milestones.

Steel is rising again on Chicago’s South Works site.

For generations, this ground helped forge the industrial backbone that shaped the city. Now, it’s becoming the Illinois Quantum and Microelectronics Park, a place where bold ideas will scale into world-changing innovation. The steel taking shape will support the facility for PsiQuantum, the anchor tenant of the campus and a global leader in quantum computing. Once completed, the first building for PsiQuantum will feature approximately 500 tons of structural steel with more steel planned for the full IQMP.

Developed by Related Midwest and CRG and designed by LJC, the project is being built by Clayco, BOWA Construction and ALL Construction Group. The steel is being fabricated locally by Affordable Welding Iron Works, located just two blocks from the site, bringing Chicago craftsmanship directly into the next generation of technology.

A powerful reminder that places can carry legacy and possibility at the same time.

Today is International Women’s Day, a global day to recognize and celebrate the achievements of women around the world.

This year’s theme is Give To Gain.

In construction, women are leading jobsites, designing complex facilities, managing teams, advancing technology, and shaping the future of our industry. Their expertise, resilience, and leadership continue to raise the standard for what’s possible.

Today, we celebrate the progress made, the impact being delivered every day, and the women helping build stronger teams, stronger communities, and a stronger industry.

A modest shift in overall construction costs can suggest stability. But a closer look reveals a more nuanced picture.

Some material prices are projected to rise, others to level off. Lead times for key equipment remain extended, continuing to influence project schedules and risk planning.

For owners and developers, understanding where costs are headed — not just where they’ve been — is critical.

Clayco’s latest Cost Index Report examines projected material trends, lead times, and regional cost dynamics shaping today’s construction market.

Behind every AI breakthrough is physical infrastructure that has to be built. Places like Cheyenne are helping make that possible.

Related Digital Cheyenne Data Center Campus is helping power AI and cloud computing while creating real local impact. Phase I alone is expected to generate 700+ construction jobs, support about 40 permanent roles, and contribute more than $250M in tax revenue over 15 years.

The facility is also designed to reduce water use through high-efficiency air-cooled systems, supporting a more sustainable approach to this type of infrastructure.

Projects like this help communities participate in the growing digital economy.

Here’s a look at the campus taking shape.

Reliable, affordable power is foundational to industrial and mission-critical infrastructure nationwide.

Clayco is launching Power and Energy, a dedicated business unit focused on utility-scale solar and battery energy storage projects.

Electricity demand in the U.S. is projected to grow 15% by 2030, reinforcing the need for thoughtful, dependable energy infrastructure. By integrating engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning under one roof, we help utilities, independent power producers, financial sponsors, and large energy users deliver projects safely, efficiently, and with greater certainty.

Our first solar and storage project in Illinois is already in design, with mobilization set for 2026. By 2027, the business unit is expected to generate $300 million in revenue and employ nearly 1,000 craft professionals.

The construction industry will need more than 800,000 new workers over the next two years to meet demand. Women currently make up just 11% of the industry — and about 4% of the trades.

The opportunity is clear.

As we kick off Women in Construction Week™, Clayco is proud to celebrate the women across our enterprise who are leading complex projects, driving innovation, and shaping the future of our industry.

Through mentorship, workforce development, and partnerships with organizations like The National Association of Women In Construction (NAWIC), we are committed to expanding opportunity and advancing women in construction.

If you’re ready to build something that matters, there has never been a better time to join us.

On Rare Disease Day, we recognize the more than 300 million people worldwide living with a rare disease. In the United States alone, an estimated 1 in 10 people are affected. Behind every statistic is a family waiting for answers and a team working to bring new therapies forward.

Advancing breakthrough research requires the right foundation. Labs, manufacturing facilities, and research centers must be designed to support rigorous science at every stage. Our role is to build the infrastructure where rare diseases can be studied, treatments can be developed, and cures can move closer to reality.

The work happening inside these walls matters.

Investing in education is investing in the future of our communities.

Clayco and LJC were honored to attend the 17th Annual Cardinal Ritter College Prep Gala in support of an incredible cause. As a proud sponsor, Clayco is committed to advancing Cardinal Ritter’s mission to expand access to quality education. The gala plays an important role in funding scholarship programs that create opportunities for students to learn, grow, and lead.

We’re thankful to stand alongside community partners in investing in students and the bright futures ahead of them.

64% of construction workers reported experiencing anxiety or depression in the past year — and many still don’t feel safe talking about it.

That’s a key finding from Clayco’s 2025 Mental Health Study.

This week in Portland, Dan Lester, our VP of Field Culture and Inclusion, shared insights from the study at the national Construction Mental Health & Wellbeing Conference, where Clayco is proud to serve as a Platinum Sponsor — highlighting why stigma persists and what we can do to change it.

What can leaders do today to reduce stigma on jobsites? Let us know in the comments.

A 1.4 million-square-foot distribution facility is underway in Hudson, New Hampshire, with completion planned for 2026.

The project includes new access roads with bridges over wetlands, full site infrastructure, and supporting structures designed for long-term performance. Environmental stewardship has guided the process from the start, with wetland preservation, erosion control measures, and extensive environmental assessments to meet local and state requirements.

When complete, the facility is expected to create approximately 2,100 jobs in the region.

Delivering projects of this size requires precision, speed, and disciplined ex*****on so our clients can scale operations with confidence and certainty.
