This is a critical and descriptive analysis of the UK construction industry based on up-to-date statistics.

Dr Hillebrandt examines the structure and resources of the industry, the demands made on it and its responses. A concise and comprehensive picture of the industry is given which will enable readers to understand what it does, how it works and how it is likely to develop.
