Micro-data access

Basis material is stored in a register. The system for calculating the indices is constructed so that it is possible to produce special indices. The basis in the system is the BC/SfB-Building Board, and within the framework of this Board there are vast opportunities of constructing special customized indices. Examples are:

• Index for a specific building part or profession
• Index for one of the three building types: One-family houses, terraced houses or multi-family houses
• Index for a specific material or wage type

Other

The Construction Cost Index for Residential Buildings is produced and transmitted to Eurostat on a quarterly basis in accordance with Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/1197 pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2019/2152 of the European Parliament and of the Council on European business statistics.
