In the year ended December 2024, the construction industry in Australia reported a gross value added (GVA) of around 175 billion Australian dollars. This industry includes building construction, heavy and civil engineering construction, as well as construction services. The state of the construction industry The construction industry is a key contributor to Australia’s economy and an employer for millions of people across the country. In Australia, the total value of residential construction work completed across the private and public sectors is significantly higher than that of non-residential construction work completed. As of 2022, there were over 600 infrastructure projects in progress or due to be in progress over the next five years across Australia, with transport projects dominating infrastructure work. Construction material shortages In recent years, supply chain issues have led to construction material shortages across Australia, disrupting the industry. In conjunction with rising housing demand, material prices have soared, delaying new constructions and putting cost pressures on construction companies and clients alike. The producer price index of steel products and timber products, such as timber board and joinery, some of Australia’s most highly demanded construction materials, soared across the country over the past year. In response to shortages and inflating prices within the sector, government agencies, departments, and key companies have been investigating the potential of recycled materials as a replacement for conventional construction materials. Reclaimed asphalt pavement, recycled glass, and crushed concrete were seen as having the largest replacement potentials within Australia’s infrastructure industry.

Intratec Plant Construction Cost Indexes (IC Indexes) are multipliers that adjust the construction cost of industrial plants over time. In other words, the IC Indexes provide a monthly series that measures changes in the capital expenditure (capex) required for building industrial plants.

IC Indexes monthly series measure the changes in the average cost of constructing a manufacturing plant, with historical data and short-term forecasts available to predict trends. Free previews for all IC Indexes are available at Intratec website.

IC Indexes for Australia and up to 32 other countries are part of Intratec Industry Economics Worldwide. Subscribe and access now key factors impacting the costs of commodity manufacturing operations in strategic countries.

Sydney had the highest median house value compared to other capital cities in Australia as of December 2024, with a value of over 1.47 million Australian dollars. Brisbane similarly had relatively high average residential housing values, passing Canberra and Melbourne to top the pricing markets for real estate across the country alongside Sydney. Housing affordability in Australia Throughout 2024, the average price of residential dwellings recovered across Australia, with most capital cities breaking price records despite interest rate hikes. Rising house prices continue to be an issue for potential homeowners, with many low and middle-income earners priced out of the market. In the third quarter of 2024, Australia’s house price-to-income ratio reached new heights at 122.1 index points. With the share of household income spent on mortgage repayments increasing alongside the disparity in supply and demand, inflating construction costs, and low borrowing capacity, the homeownership dream has become an unattainable prospect for the average person in Australia. Does the rental market offer better prospects? Renting for prolonged periods has become inevitable for many Australians due to the country’s largely inaccessible property ladder. However, record low vacancy rates and rising median weekly house and unit rent prices within Australia’s rental market are making renting a less appealing prospect. In financial year 2024, households in the Greater Sydney metropolitan area reported spending around 30 percent of their household income on rent.
