Ironworker prevailing wage, Deaf Smith County group, Texas (5 counties)

DOL sets the same ironworker rates, row for row, in 5 counties: Dallam, Deaf Smith, Donley, Hartley and Swisher. Every figure on this page applies in each of them.

$38.07an hour, base + fringe · REINFORCING

$29.64 wage + $8.43 fringe benefits · Building · IRON0263-019

On federally funded or assisted building construction in each of these 5 counties, an ironworker working as reinforcing must be paid at least $38.07 an hour: a $29.64 base wage plus $8.43 in fringe benefits, under wage determination TX20260198 (modification 1). DOL prints no total, so $38.07 is our sum of the two.

Wage determination TX20260198, modification 1, published May 18, 2026, for building construction; rate identifier IRON0263-019 (June 1, 2025). Checked against sam.gov on October 25, 2026.

Texas public bodies set their own rates, often the Davis-Bacon ones; check the bid documents. Under Gov't Code 2258.022 each body either surveys local wages or adopts the Davis-Bacon rates, and no state agency publishes a schedule.

DOL lists 2 ironworker rates for each of these counties, from $25.70 to $38.07 an hour. See all of them.

Base wage and fringe benefits: $29.64 + $8.43

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.
