$65.70an hour, base wage + fringe benefits (our sum)

$43.05 base wage + $22.65 fringe benefits · SHEE0009-001

On federally funded or assisted building construction in each of these 47 counties, a sheet metal worker must be paid at least $65.70 an hour: a $43.05 base wage plus $22.65 in fringe benefits, under wage determination CO20260001 (modification 1). DOL prints no total, so $65.70 is our sum of the two.

Wage determination CO20260001, modification 1, published May 18, 2026, for building construction; rate identifier SHEE0009-001 (July 1, 2025). Checked against sam.gov on October 25, 2026.

Colorado's state rule uses these same Davis-Bacon determinations for state-agency projects of $500,000 or more that have no federal money (CDOT contracts excluded), with no separate survey (SB19-196, C.R.S. 24-92-205). The City of Denver publishes its own schedules for its own projects, on the City of Denver page.

Base wage and fringe benefits: $43.05 + $22.65

The base wage is the taxable hourly wage. DOL prints the fringe benefits as one hourly figure, not itemized; it can go to health, pension, vacation and training plans, or be paid as cash where the state allows.
