| Abstract | Construction costs for sewers and treatment plants have risen steadily since the mid 1930's. Rates of increase vary among the different construction elements such as labor, materials and equipment, as well as for different types of construction. Contract award data have proven useful for evaluating progress in the construction of sewers and treatment plants. During a period of rising costs, however, such data need to be adjusted to a standard base to assure comparability. This can be done through the use of an appropriate construction cost index. The report presents such an index. |
