Construction of residential and non-residential buildings

NACE code 41.2 covers the construction of residential and non-residential buildings, a critical sector that plays a vital role in the overall economy. This industry is responsible for the development of a wide range of structures, from family homes to commercial and industrial facilities, providing the physical infrastructure necessary for economic and social activities to thrive.

The construction of buildings involves a series of well-established techniques and processes. This typically begins with the planning and design phase, where architects and engineers develop the blueprints and specifications for the structure. The construction phase then involves the procurement of necessary materials, such as concrete, steel, and lumber, as well as the deployment of specialized equipment and skilled labor to carry out the various tasks, including site preparation, foundation work, framing, roofing, and finishing touches.

The construction of residential and non-residential buildings requires a diverse range of inputs, including raw materials like cement, aggregates, steel, and wood products. Additionally, the industry relies on specialized machinery and equipment, such as cranes, excavators, and power tools, as well as a skilled workforce of construction workers, electricians, plumbers, and other tradespeople.

The primary output of NACE code 41.2 is the completed residential and non-residential buildings, which can then be utilized by other industries, such as 68.1 Buying and selling of own real estate, 68.2 Renting and operating of own or leased real estate, and 68.3 Real estate activities on a fee or contract basis.
