Reihe: Spon's Price Books

Spon’s A & B Price Book is the most detailed, professionally relevant source of construction price information currently available for the UK. With competition growing fiercer throughout the industry and with recent pressure on materials due to rising commodity prices, the A & B's unique Tender Index and checks against tenders are more valuable than ever before.

This is the only price book that gives a detailed cost base in a way that allows adjustment for market conditions that affect building prices for Major Works contracts exceeding £3,300,000 in value.
