CONSTRUCTION COST INDEX
VARIATIONS IN EUROPE
Throughout Europe, construction costs are constantly in a
state of flux. The price of materials rises and falls under the
influence of local and international economic factors, while
transport costs, handling costs and labour costs also vary
from one country to the next.
RLB Euro Alliance has created a comprehensive European
construction cost index. In addition, we’ve used our own cost
data to generate regional cost indices for selected European
countries.
Our construction cost indices are updated regularly, ensuring
availability of current, up-to-date information.
The chart overleaf sets out the key cost differences across
Europe
European Cost data
On the following pages we present an outline of cost for
various building types by country. The figures presented
include construction costs associated with shell and core,
fitout, preliminaries and a nominal allowance for external
works. These figures exclude allowances for professional fees
and local applicable taxes. All cost data is shown in Euro.
