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. - Building materials
- The material component is calculated by weighted averaging of
certain product groups. The weighting scheme was based on the
average use of building materials for four types of houses. These
four types are: apartments and houses for sale and for rental.
Price indices of the different materials are averaged with this
weighting scheme resulting in a price index of materials for the
house-building.
