Description topics

Total building costs
Input price indices of new dwellings are related to the prices of labour
and building materials. The series is calculated from the development
of labour prices in construction and cost of materials used in
residential building.
Changes in the prices of building equipment, general costs, profit and
risk are not included in the input price index.
The results of the Production statistics 1999, with a price update to
2000, have been used to weight the labour and material components.
Wages
The wage index is based on the development of the statistics
"Contractuele Loonkosten" (CLK, contractual wage costs) in
building construction.
