Arizona Building Systems Is Among Top Ten Metal Builders in the Country

(PRWEB) October 29, 2005 -- Metal Construction News has awarded seventh place ranking in the tonnage category to Arizona Building Systems (ABS), a full service commercial builder established 35 years ago in the Valley. Metal Construction News publishes the annual Top 100 Metal Builders ranking to honor the fastest growing metal builders in the country. Rankings are based on both tonnage and square footage. ABS placed 7th in the tonnage category having constructed buildings with over 4,450 tons of metal in 2004. ABS is one of only two steel contractors from Arizona on the list and the only one in the top 50. ABS also placed 6th in Metal Construction News’ Top 100 builders ranking for total square footage constructed, having completed over 1,363,530 sq. ft of steel metal construction in 2004. ABS’ position in the top 10 is significant because there are currently 747 commercial and heavy construction companies in the US.

Some of ABS’ most notable clients include:
