In 2007, the value of construction works done by these workers on sites increased by 13.4%, as compared to 2006.

 

By type of construction, 49.7% out of the total works were done on buildings and 50.3% on civil engineering works.

 

By type of works, 66.2% out of the total works were done on new construction works and 33.8% on reconstructions, adaptation, repairs and maintenance works.

NOTES ON METHODOLOGY

 

 

Data on construction presented in this publication are collected through reporting methods using the Annual Report on Construction Works (GRAĐ-12 form).

 

 

Coverage and comparability

 

The Annual Report on Construction Works is collected for legal entities and parts thereof employing 5 or more persons classified in the Register of Legal Entities according to the National Classification of Economic Activities under section F - Construction.

 

Coverage of construction activities is harmonised with section F - Construction in the NKD 2002. (NN, No. 13/03) and data of type of constructions are classified according to the Classification of Types of Construction – KVG (NN, No. 11/98). This Classification is harmonised with the Classification prescribed by the Statistics Office of the European Union (NACE Rev. 1.1, Classifications of Types of Constructions – CC, final version.).

 

Data refer to all construction works done on the territory of the Republic of Croatia.

 

 

Definitions

 

Value of construction works done is presented in current prices and includes work really done during the reporting year, irrespective of whether they are paid for or not.

 

Value of construction works done includes the value of work, building material, complete units and structures, propulsion material and electricity, expenses of using construction machinery and equipment and other expenses relating to the work.

 

Value of construction works done excludes works subcontracted to others in order to avoid the duplicity in presenting works, value added tax, costs of purchase of the land, project cost, surveying of land and supervising of services.

 

Constructions are structures connected with the ground, for which construction works are carried out, and which are made of construction materials and components.

 

Buildings are permanent constructions covered with roof and closed with outer walls. They are built as separate useful units that protect from weather and other conditions, intended for dwelling, performing of a certain activity or for placing and keeping of animals, goods, equipment used in various industrial activities and services etc. Buildings are also constructions covered with roof but without (all) walls, e.g. porches, and underground constructions, e.g. underground shelters, underground garages, underground shopping centres and other business premises in subways etc.

 

Residential buildings are constructions in which 50% or more of useful floor area is intended for dwelling purposes.

 

Non-residential buildings are constructions without a dwelling area, or in which less than 50% of the overall useful floor area is used for dwelling purposes.

 

Civil engineering works are all constructions not classified under buildings, e.g., roads, railways, pipelines, bridges, dams, constructions intended for sport and recreation, etc.

 

New construction works include building of new construction on sites where either no constructions existed before, or they existed, but were removed. It also includes complete reconstruction of buildings (ruined in war, elementary disasters, old age etc.) of which only facades are retained but internal ceilings and walls are entirely fallen in.

 

Reconstructions and adaptations include construction works  that essentially change the structure of an existing construction in order to increase its capacity or achieve better quality of construction, to adjust it to a new purpose, extend its expected  life span etc.

Value of extensions and additional construction works are presented together with works on new constructions if the new residential or business entirety is concerned.

 

Major repairs are construction works that comprise renewal (replacement) of significant dilapidated parts of a construction without changing its structural system, size, capacity, use or the arrangement of rooms.

 

Minor repairs and maintenance works are construction works performed periodically in order to maintain the usable condition of a construction
