Information about employment is also collected quarterly. The information is used to monitor the performance of the industry and contributes to gross domestic product (GDP).&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The purpose of the survey is to obtain information about the construction industry and allied trades (e.g. plumbers and electricians), and to provide a comprehensive review of economic activity. The information provided is essential as the construction industry and allied trades forms a large part of the country's industrial production and capital investment.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Businesses of all sizes are surveyed to ensure statistics are representative of the UK economy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The study available from the UK Data Archive under SN 8807 includes monthly data for 2010-2019 and annual data files for all years.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;Linking to other business studies&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br&gt;These data contain Inter-Departmental Business Register (IDBR) reference numbers.  These are anonymous but unique reference numbers assigned to business organisations.  Their inclusion allows researchers to combine different business survey sources together.  Researchers may consider applying for other business data to assist their research.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Latest edition information&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;For the third edition (October 2023), annual data and documentation for 2021 have been added to the study.&lt;/p&gt;</abstract><abstract xml:lang="en">&lt;B&gt;Main Topics&lt;/B&gt;:&lt;BR&gt;</abstract><abstract xml:lang="en">&lt;p&gt;This study provides estimates of the value of construction work undertaken in the following areas:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;public housing, new work&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;public housing, repair and maintenance&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;private housing, new work&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;private housing, repair and maintenance&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;infrastructure, new work&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;infrastructure, repair and maintenance&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;public non-housing, new work&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;public non-housing, repair and maintenance&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;private non-housing, commercial, new work&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;private non-housing, industrial, new work&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;private non-housing, industrial and/or commercial, repair and maintenance&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;The following variables are also provided:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Standard Industrial Codes 2007&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;turnover&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;employment&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;IDBR reporting unit reference numbers&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;weighting values&lt;br&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</abstract>
