Construction still booming say buyers

Construction Boom
Construction buyers reported the fastest rise in new work for 12 months in October.

The rebound in new order growth was highlighted in the latest Markit/CIPS UK Construction PMI index report which also showed the highest rate of construction job creation for nearly a year.

Commercial building was the main driver of growth as work accelerated sharply.

The figures cast huge doubts on recent GDP figures claiming a construction slowdown is acting as a drag on the UK economy.

The overall index registered 58.8 in October, which was down from 59.9 in September but still well above the 50.0 no-change threshold.

The latest survey marked two-and-a-half years of sustained output growth across the UK construction sector.

Construction companies remain highly upbeat about their prospects for growth over the next 12 months, with more than half (59%) forecasting a rise in business activity and only 7% expecting a decline.

Tim Moore, Senior Economist at Markit and author of the Markit/CIPS Construction PMI, said : “October’s survey indicates that the UK construction sector remains firmly in expansion mode, although commercial building work was the only category to experience faster growth than in September.

“Another relatively buoyant construction PMI reading indicates that the sector remains in rude health.

“Rather than acting as a drag on the economy, as suggested by recent GDP estimates, the sector is continuing to act as an important driving force behind the ongoing UK economic upturn.”

Stefan Friedhoff, Global Corporates managing director for construction at Lloyds Bank Commercial Banking, said: “Optimism continues to be more prevalent than pessimism in the sector.

“The downbeat data from the Office for National Statistics released last week will have jarred some, but others will remain sanguine.

“Looking at recent results from some of construction’s bigger players, there is evidence that operating margins are slowly increasing to their best levels since the recession.

“This is heartening and suggests that the rhetoric around being more selective about work taken on is beginning to translate into improving operating performance.”

Is this what construction will be like in 2045
Equipment hire specialist Hewden has taken a peak into the future of construction to predict how the industry will look in 2045.

The report envisages a world of 30km tall buildings with spaceports, driverless vehicles and mini-cities in the sky while site workers will have super-strength exoskeletons creating half-man, half-machine operatives that can utilise a range of attachments.

Hewden’s 2045: Constructing the Future report has been developed by renowned futurologist Ian Pearson and was launched today to coincide with the date Marty McFly and Dr Emmett Brown time-travelled to in the ‘80s blockbuster movie, Back to the Future II.

The report takes a look at what the UK might look like in another 30 years, covering areas such as building design, transport, technology and health and safety.

Pearson said: “While we’re not all flying around in cars, there are a number of things, such as the use of drones, video conferencing and some of the physical structures that were portrayed very accurately in the movie.

“The acceleration of new technology has and will continue to be the biggest driver for change. As will look forward another 30 years we can expect to see a very different but exciting world.”

Some of the key findings of the report include:

Skyline 2045

The London Skyline in 2045 will have super-tall structures and a spaceport

Cars 2045

In 2045 driverless vehicles will be the norm. Unlike the more futuristic curved look, vehicles will likely be box shaped to maximise on-street capacity.

Exo Skeleton 2045
Builders will have super-strength exoskeletons creating half-man, half-machine workers that can utilise a range of attachments.

 

Pearson added: “Augmented reality will play a major role in the aesthetics of a building.

“It’s likely that many buildings will actually be very plain, instead using AR to create visually appealing environments for those that visit.”

Heavily populated cities such as London are likely to change the most, according to the report, with space travel and development of new cities within cities some of the major changes.

Pearson said: “The use of super-strong carbon-based materials will enable us to build incredibly tall structures, some even up to 30km high.

“This will make space travel more convenient and for major transport hubs like London, going into space will be a regular occurrence in 2045.

“A few of these structures may be so large that their capacity enables them to function as small cities in their own right, with all the usual city functions mixed within the same building.”
