4. PRIMARY TYPES OF BUILDING PROJECTS/JOBS YOU WORK ON:
(You can select more than one.)

 a. Residential and/or Commercial and/or Institutional

19 Commercial
17 Residential
13 Institutional

Respondents have been involved in various types of building projects (commercial, residential, and institutional).  Most do at least two of these three types of work.

 b. New and/or Renovation

18 Renovation
14 New construction

Respondents have worked on renovation and new projects, with slightly more renovation work reported. More than one-quarter of respondents (28%) regularly work on both types of projects.

c. Public and/or Private

18 Private
14 Public

Respondents have worked on public and private building projects, with slightly more private work reported. Twenty-eight percent (28%) of respondents regularly do both types of work.

This background information indicates that respondents have diverse types of project experience; their overall work experience is fairly typical of the general population of building professionals. I also know that people from both large and small firms are represented in this survey.
