CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY
Definitions:
The activity, which creates all types of new buildings & civil engineering projects, as well as the maintenance & repair of existing facilities (Wells, 1984).
The construction industry, is a broad conglomeration of industries and sectors which add value in the creation & maintenance of fixed assets within the built environment

ILO (2003) defines the industry saying, “The construction sector produces a wide range of products, from individual houses to major infrastructure such as roads, power plants and petrochemical complexes. In most countries output is roughly equally divided between housing, other buildings and civil engineering projects. Although attention is mostly focused on new construction, the renovation and maintenance of existing structures accounts for almost 50% of total construction output in some of the more developed economies and an even greater share of employment”.
