Description topics

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.
