Civil engineering works

CPC v2.1 Code: 532

About civil engineering works

cpc code 532 covers a wide range of civil engineering activities that are essential for the development and maintenance of infrastructure. This industry plays a crucial role in the broader economy, as it is responsible for the construction and upkeep of roads, bridges, dams, buildings, and other vital structures. The work carried out by civil engineers underpins many other industries, making this a foundational sector that supports economic growth and progress.

Production process

The main production techniques used in the civil engineering industry involve a combination of planning, design, and construction. Civil engineers first conduct feasibility studies, survey the site, and develop detailed plans and specifications for the project. This is followed by the procurement of necessary materials, equipment, and labor. The actual construction process may involve excavation, concrete pouring, steel fabrication, and various other specialized techniques, depending on the nature of the project.

Production inputs

The civil engineering industry requires a wide range of inputs, including raw materials such as 141 Stone, 142 Sand and clay, and 241 Basic metals. Additionally, the industry relies on specialized machinery and equipment, such as cranes, bulldozers, and concrete mixers. Civil engineers also require skilled labor, including project managers, architects, and construction workers, to execute their projects effectively.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the civil engineering industry are the completed infrastructure projects, such as 411 Buildings, 421 Roads and railways, and 422 Utility projects. These outputs are then consumed by a wide range of other industries, including 41 Construction, 49 Transportation and storage, and 35 Electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply.
