About this indicator

Source	Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS)
Frequency	Trimestral
Release	Aprox. 8-9 semanas tras el cierre del trimestre de referencia (calendario ABS)
What it is	Construction Work Done measures the value of construction actually carried out in Australia during the quarter (residential, non-residential and engineering), in volume terms and seasonally adjusted. Published by the ABS, it differs from Building Approvals, which count future authorisations rather than work performed.
How it's calculated	A quarterly survey of construction firms (the Construction Activity Survey) on the value of work carried out in the period, combining building (residential and non-residential) and engineering, in chain volume terms.
Market implications	It is a direct component of GDP fixed capital formation and a more reliable read on real sector activity than approvals; a strong figure points to a larger contribution from construction to Australian growth.
Limitations	It is released with a longer lag than other indicators (nearly two months after quarter-end) and is subject to revision as ongoing projects are reclassified.
