Construction (PKD section F)

This section includes general and specialised construction works relating to buildings and civil engineering structures. It covers construction works consisting of: repair, extension, reconstruction, enlargement, demolition, assembly of prefabricated buildings or structures on the construction site, as well as permanent or temporary structures.

General construction works include the construction of complete buildings (for example residential, office, retail, as well as other public utility buildings or farm buildings). This section also includes the construction of civil engineering structures (for example motorways, streets, bridges, tunnels, railways, airport runways, ports and other waterworks, irrigation systems, sewerage systems, industrial infrastructure, pipelines and power lines, sports facilities).

Construction work may be carried out on own account or on contract. Part of the work, and sometimes even the whole of the construction works, may be subcontracted. Economic entities that bear full responsibility for the implementation of a construction project and subcontractors performing construction works are classified in this section.

In addition, this section includes building renovation and engineering works.

Maintenance, repair and installation of equipment forming an integral part of buildings (for example escalators or air-conditioning systems) are classified as construction in section F, if these works are carried out on the construction site.

This section includes the construction of complete buildings (relevant subclasses of division 41), complete civil engineering structures (relevant subclasses of division 42) as well as specialised construction works, provided that they constitute part of the construction project (relevant subclasses of division 43).

The rental of construction equipment with operator is classified in this section if construction works are carried out using it.
