Spon'S Architects' And Builders' Price Book 2021 eBook

UK construction supply chain firms face an array of risks going into 2021 as fallout from the COVID-19 crisis - not least the effect of social distancing rules on site productivity. But underlying construction demand remains broadly in place for the expected medium-term.

SPON’S ARCHITECTS’ AND BUILDERS’ PRICE BOOK 2021, compiled by AECOM, still provides the most accurate, detailed and professionally relevant construction price information for the UK. Its unique Tender Index , updated through the year (2015 = 100), gives an ongoing reality check and allows you to adjust for changing market conditions. Although it suits a wide range of project sizes, this is the only price book which sets out a detailed cost base for contracts exceeding £4,000,000 in value. Use the access code inside the front cover of the book to get set up with an ebook of this 2021 edition on the VitalSource® Bookshelf platform, available for access and use until the end of December 2021.

As well as an overhaul of prices, several new items have been added, including:

• a London fringe office cost model
• a higher education refurbishment cost model

• Pecafil® permanent formwork
• and an expanded range of cast iron rainwater products
