Price Watch: Basic Construction Materials

For all the DIYers and construction companies, we’re introducing a monthly price monitoring of the basic construction materials to take the guesswork out for your next project!

1. Cement

Cement is used to bind substances used for construction that sets, hardens, and adheres to other materials to bind them together. It is frequently used to produce concrete when mixed with gravel and sand. And as we all know, concrete is the most widely used material in the construction industry.

2. Hollow Blocks

Hollow Blocks serve an important role in the construction industry because of its load carrying capacity. It is also believed that concrete blocks are one of the most popular construction materials used in the industry almost everywhere. 

3. Gravel and Sand

Sand and gravel are essential for road construction, for mixing with asphalt and in the production of construction materials like concrete blocks, bricks, and pipes. Many construction projects wouldn’t be completed well without the use of these aggregates. 

4. Deformed Bar

Deformed bars are some of the most common construction materials seen in many sites. This material should not be disregarded as it establishes the foundation of a structure and is also responsible for ensuring the durability of the structure.

5. G.I. Tie Wire

Tie wire is used by ironworkers to tie reinforcing steel together. It can also be used as a remedy to any construction issues, and is still used extensively.
