ABS Australian Production of Selected Construction Materials, Sep 2012
Both of these commodities are excellent measurements of Building and Construction activity in Australia. It is interesting that the year 2011-12 has increased over past years and it would seem that of the July August September 2012 3 months, have increased in “Premixed Concrete Delivery”. Hopefully this is a positive sign that the Building and Construction area is on the improve.
