International construction cost survey 2012 China Construction demand in China fell by as much as ten percent over the last six months because of government measures introduced late last year to moderate growth to more sustainable levels, curb the sharp spike in property prices and reduce inflationary pressures. These included restrictions on pre-sales, restrictions on loans for purchases of third homes, higher minimum mortgage rates and tighter financing for second-home purchases. Property transactions in the key cities of Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzen have fallen strongly in response. Weaker demand for Chinese exports threatens to slow manufacturing growth in 2012, however the Chinese Government has strong reserves and policies to stimulate the economy if the global economy does deteriorate further. 12 Turner & Townsend China – international building costs per m2 of internal area 2008 2009 2010 2011 2011 CNY CNY CNY CNY USD Residential Detached house – medium standard 5,800 4,400 4,480 4,540 699 Detached house – prestige 6,500 5,100 5,170 5,240 806 Townhouse – medium standard 4,800 4,000 4,050 4,110 632 Apartments – private medium density 4,500 3,200 3,290 3,330 512 Apartments – high rise 5,000 3,900 3,980 4,030 620 Aged care/affordable units Commercial 3,700 2,600 2,670 2,710 417 Offices – business park 5,500 4,400 4,500 4,690 722 CBD offices up to 20 floors – medium 8,400 6,900 7,090 7,450 1,146 CBD offices – prestige Warehouses 10,500 8,900 9,140 9,300 1,431 Warehouse/factory unit – basic 3,000 2,300 2,360 2,580 397 Large warehouse distribution centre 3,300 2,700 2,780 3,050 469 High-tech factory/laboratory Retail 6,100 5,300 5,450 5,870 903 Large shopping centre including mall 7,500 5,900 6,080 6,180 951 Neighbourhood including supermarket 5,100 4,000 4,120 4,220 649 Prestige car showroom Hotels 3,900 3,400 3,500 3,650 562 Three-star travellers 6,800 5,500 5,660 5,780 889 Five-star luxury 11,300 10,000 10,300 10,540 1,622 Resort style Hospitals 9,100 8,300 8,550 8,750 1,346 Day centre 4,500 4,200 4,320 4,410 679 Regional hospital 5,500 5,100 5,250 5,350 823 General hospital Schools 6,100 5,700 5,870 5,980 920 Primary and secondary 3,800 3,500 3,610 3,640 560 University Carparks 5,700 5,200 5,350 5,390 829 Multistorey – above ground 2,200 2,000 2,080 2,140 329 Multistorey – below ground Airports 5,300 4,500 4,640 4,780 736 Airport terminal 11,500 10,300 10,600 10,900 1,677 This document is in the public domain and is shared here by RSS Construction Projects Ltd - www.rssprojects.com
