One rate per trade for the kind of construction picked above; open a trade for its other classifications and the WD's notes. DOL prints no total, so each total is base wage plus fringe benefits, added by us. The Department of Labor modifies these determinations on SAM.gov in weekly batches through the year; the latest Tennessee modification we hold is dated May 18, 2026. A contract keeps the wage determination in its bid documents. Modifications published before bid opening apply to it, though one published less than 10 days before can be left out if the agency finds there isn't time to tell bidders (29 CFR 1.6(c)). Checked against sam.gov on October 25, 2026.

Tennessee sets its own rates for state highway work only; elsewhere Davis-Bacon is the only prevailing wage. The Prevailing Wage Commission's 25 statewide highway rates are wages with no fringe, on the state highway rates page (T.C.A. 12-4-401 ff.).
