The mission of the Council is to promote and provide strategic leadership for the development of the construction industry in Tanzania. The mission is implemented through the execution of 15 functions embodied in the NCC Act. Among the functions of the council are “to promote and provide strategic leadership for the growth, development and expansion of the construction industry in Tanzania with emphasis on the development of the local capacity for socio-economic development and competitiveness in the changing global environment; to advise the government on all matters relating to the development of the construction industry and to formulate proposals and recommendations for their implementation as well as to provide advisory services and technical assistance to construction industry stakeholders on all matters related to the construction industry”.The National Construction Council (NCC) provides advisory services to various stakeholders of the construction industry in areas of, project planning, procurement and contract administration of works, consultancy services, project cost management, value for money auditing; Contract Management and Construction Claims Management. Furthermore, NCC coordinates resolution of construction project disputes, by mainly appointing conciliators, adjudicators and arbitrators. In line with the above functions and services, NCC surveys basic price list for establishment of cost analyses, indices and data.Hence, the need for NCC by engaging itself in collecting reliable basic Price list to be used for compilation of cost analysis and other construction cost data for assessing costs and providing the basis for the preparation of cost plans of future construction projects. The basic price list for construction materials will be the benchmark for commencing the compilation of price indices from different regions and preparation of construction cost indices as a means of updating past costs of buildings and civil engineering works/projects. Thus, as afore mentioned above the basic price list collected will be used in the Cost analysis which means in trying to define 'the systematic breakdown of cost data so as to facilitate examination and comparison'. Cost analysis that will provide information for any immediate problem and can be performed in a number of ways. It can, for example, allow for a provision of detailed comparisons between two different projects and isolate the causes of differences. These may arise from a variety of causes, such as differences in basic design or details of design; differences in regional pricing or differences in contracting conditions. Indeed, they could arise from a whole range of factors which tend to make every scheme unique in one respect or another. The said Cost analysis will form the basis of cost control in projects as well.In this respect the basic price list can be used as the basis for determining the unit rates that will later be used in the analysis by elements or functional parts of a building, with the aim of providing data for the establishment of cost targets for designing buildings. It is however, one of a wide range of methods which could be used for collecting, collating and classifying the data contained in priced bills of quantities.Another purpose of a basic price list is to be used in the process of cost analysis so as to show where reductions could most beneficially be made, should the tender unfortunately prove to be too high. The greater the number of cost analyses prepared and circulated, the more extensive will be the body of available cost information and the greater the opportunity for cost comparisons leading to more effective cost control. A bill of quantities normally provides a cost breakdown of a project on the basis of work sections in accordance with the Standard Method of Measurement of Building Works. The compilation of element costs thus becomes a process of abstracting in reverse - abstract type sheets or computer spreadsheets are given elemental headings and then the prices of items, or more usually groups of items, are transferred to the elemental sheets. The elemental costs are totaled and checked against the total cost of the project. Using basic price list data construction cost rate can be determined and using the gross floor area measured (from the inside face of the external walls) and the cost of elements divided by the area. It will expedite the work if cost analyses can be compiled by the same persons who prepared the original bills. 1.3ObjectiveThe main objective of the survey is to ensure that NCC has a reserve data bank for the basic prices of commonly used construction materials, labour wages and hiring rates of plant and equipment. The data collected will be supplied to stakeholders each month or throughout a year and whenever they are required. 1.4Scope of the SurveyThe survey for collection of basic price list of common used construction materials was conducted in eight (8) regions which included, Iringa, Mbeya, Songwe, Rukwa, Katavi, Ruvuma, Mtwara and Lindi regions. The categories of materials surveyed for the basic price included cement/bonding material, reinforcement bars, roofing materials, wood (carpentry), quarry products, concrete products, plumbing fixtures, painting and decoration material, some of precast units as well as sanitary installation. There was also other additional information which were looked for during this survey. This additional information included availability of labour and their wages as well as hiring rates for plants and equipment in respective regions. 1.5Survey MethodologyThe following were the methodologies applied for this survey:Identifying and making tools for the survey such as Table matrices indicating the costs of different items used in the construction; unit quantity; the standard unit of measure and cost of each item at the time of data collection from different locations in the regions;Physical visit to the regions;Oral interviews with different manufacturers, suppliers and venders of construction materials;Using direct questionnaires to construction industry stakeholders in local government, central and private sector;Using computer for data recording, compilation and analysis; andReport writing.2.0DATA COLLECTION ON BASIC PRICE LIST OF DIFFERENT CONSTRUCTION MATERIALSIt is very important to know the trend in the material cost variations at different times in the regions. Basic price data for construction materials have to be collected at a set pattern for pre decided items and while collecting data on basic price of construction material the following factors have to be strictly followed:Price of the same quality to be collected every timeUnit must be the sameQuantity must be the samePrice must be collected from the designated shop and pre decided market of the centrePrice should be the one the builder actually paid; it should include the local tax, if anyData have to be collected without interval/breakIn case prescribed grade and variety of an item of material is not available in the selected shop, the price for the same item is to be collected from a reserved shop. If that is also not available, the price may be collected for the prescribed quality and quantity in any other shop in the market. In case prescribed quality is not available, commonly used quality may be selected.As this was the first assignment for collecting basic prices of construction materials in these eight regions, hence data were randomly collected from various shops within the regions. The prices in respect of certain materials across regions may be observed to differ and there may be few outliers. The possible reasons which may explain such variation would include lack of availability of raw material in the some of the regions to produce the final product, specificity/peculiarity associated with geographical location, distortions in demand and supply of specific material etc. The basic prices of construction materials from these regions will form a benchmark for continuous data collection and hence it is expected the above factors will be followed during future data collection.The following is the analyses of basic prices with respect to selected material items in the surveyed regions.2.1CementPortland cement is the basic and most essential ingredient of concrete. Concrete is made when Portland cement creates a paste with water that binds with sand and rock to harden. Cement is a material like glue which can bind together all other building materials and get harden too. As for this assignment, the surveyed cement was of 32.5N/mm2, 42.5 N/mm2 and white cement. This material was available in almost all surveyed shops in all regions. The sources of this material to all surveyed regions were mbeya (Tembo) cement in Mbeya, Twiga cement in Dar es Salaam and Dangote cement in Mtwara. The following Tables show the basic prices of cement as was surveyed in the regions.Table showing the prices for cement type 32.5N/mm2 and 42.5 N/mm2RegionUnitPrice (TZS)32.5N/mm242.5 N/mm2Iringa50kg bag15,000.0016,000.00Mbeya50kg bag12,500.0015,000.00Songwe50kg bag14,500.0015,000.00Rukwa50kg bag16,500.0017,500.00Katavi50kg bag19,500.0019,500.00Ruvuma50kg bag15,000.0016,000.00Lindi50kg bag12,000.0013,000.00Mtwara50kg bag12,000.0013,000.00Table showing the price of white cement for the surveyed regionsRegionUnitPrice (TZS)Iringa40kg bag30,000.00Mbeya40kg bag35,000.00Songwe40kg bag35,000.00Rukwa40kg bag35,000.00Katavi40kg bag40,000.00Ruvuma40kg bag35,000.00Lindi40kg bag35,000.00Mtwara40kg bag35,000.002.2Reinforcement Bars (Steel)Steel is a high-strength material compared to concrete. The reinforcing steel is strong in tension as well in compression. It plays an important role in giving strength to structure in construction project. The prices of steel surveyed in this assignment included high steel bars and mild steel bars with sizes from 8mm to 32mm diameters.

Coarse aggregates are divided using big sieves in machines are used to mix in concrete for construction purposes and those with higher size like 40mm are used for railroads. The coarse aggregate provide main structure to concrete and load-bearing ingredient of the concrete. The aggregates surveyed in this exercise were of sizes ranges between 6mm to 25mm. The quarries for aggregates in these regions some were situated nearby the towns whereby they were owned by private companies but some regions have to import the aggregates from other nearby regions. The following Table shows the basic prices of aggregates for the surveyed regions.Table showing the prices of Aggregates in Surveyed RegionsRegionUnitPrice (TZS)6mm10mm13mm14mm19mm20mm25mmIringam3130,000130,000130,000130,000130,000130,000130,000Mbeyam377,00077,00077,00077,00077,00077,00077,000Songwem3120,000120,000120,000120,000120,000120,000120,000Rukwam382,60082,60082,60082,600106,200106,20082,600Katavim329,50059,00059,00059,00059,00082,60082,600Ruvumam390,00090,00090,00090,00090,00090,00090,000Lindim3125,000125,000125,000125,000125,000125,000125,000Mtwaram382,00082,00082,00082,00082,00082,00082,0002.4Sand/Fine AggregatesSand?is naturally-occurring material consisting of very small, loose particles of decomposed rocks, corals, or shells. It consists of particles smaller than gravel but coarser than silt, and is used in mortar, glass, abrasives, and foundry molds. Generally, in this survey it was found that the sources of sand for some regions were not very far as was extracted from nearby rivers with exception of few regions. The following Table shows the basic prices of sand for the surveyed regions.Table showing basic prices of sand for the surveyed regionsRegionIringaMbeyaSongweRukwaKataviRuvumaLindiMtwaraPrice per m3 (TZS)17,50024,00037,00025,00030,00017,50025,00017,5002.5Ready Mix ConcreteReady mix concrete is the plant manufactured and directly delivered at the construction site. It is preferred when workspace is limited on construction site and making concrete on site is too difficult tasks. Some time Ready Mix Concrete is used because quality of concrete is more important. The survey revealed that the service for ready mix concrete was available to only two regions. The ready mix concrete surveyed was of classes 15, 20, 25 and 30.

It is an organic material - a natural composite of cellulose fibers that are strong in tension and embedded in a matrix of lignin that resists compression.Timber for structural applications as purlins, ties or trusses can be sawn from trees that are hardwoods or softwoods. Softwoods which include coniferous trees grow faster and they are light. Their density ranges from 350 to 700 kg/m3. Hardwoods which are from broad leaved trees grow slowly. Their density ranges from 450 to 1250 kg/m3. The cost of softwood timber is cheaper than hardwoods. Softwoods are therefore extensively used for structural applications.The survey for this assignment included collecting the basic prices of different sizes of softwoods timber and hardwoods timber. There were two types of softwoods which were treated softwoods and untreated softwoods. As for hardwoods, there were mainly mkongo and mninga. The woods surveyed were of sizes 150 x 50mm, 100 x 50mm, 75 x 50mm, 50 x 50mm and 150 x 25mm. The sources of these woods were mainly from Mafinga, Njombe, Kilolo, Ileje and Mbinga.

The essential ingredients of concrete are cement, aggregate (sand, gravel) and water. Concrete blocks are produced in a large variety of shapes and sizes. They can be produced manually or with the help of machines. Concrete blocks have high compressive strength, resistance to weathering, impact and abrasion. They are Good fire resistance up to about 400°C and they have very good stability. The concrete blocks surveyed were of sizes 4 inch, 5 inch and 6 inch. They were locally available in all regions.

It is most commonly used to protect, color, or provide texture to objects. Paint can be made or purchased in many colors—and in many different types, such as watercolor or synthetic. Paint is typically stored, sold, and applied as a liquid, but most types dry into a solid. There are two groups of paints – water based paint and oil based paint. Water is used as a solvent in water based paints. Artificial solvents are used for oil based paints. These artificial solvents include acetone and benzene. There are some pigments that can be used for both water or oil based paints. Among the two groups of paints, the survey was done on five types of paints which included Gross Paints, Acrylic Emulsion Paints, Plastic Emulsion Paints, Weather Guard Paints and Wash n Wear Paints. These paints were locally available in shops for all eight surveyed regions.

Tile is a manufactured piece of hard-wearing material such as ceramic, stone, metal, baked clay, or even glass, generally used for covering roofs, floors, walls, or other objects such as tabletops. Tiles are often used to form wall and floor coverings, and can range from simple square tiles to complex or mosaics. Tiles are most often made of ceramic. Ceramic materials for tiles include earthenware, stoneware and porcelain. This survey looked into porcelain floor tiles and ceramic wall tiles. Most of the tiles surveyed were twyford China with sizes for porcelain floor tiles 400x400x10mm, 500X500X10mm as well as 600X600X10mm and that for ceramic wall tiles 250X400X10mm and 200x300x10mm.

While red is used for hot water, whereas blue is used for cold water, but there’s no difference between the material.There are many uses for PVC. As a rigid plastic, it is used as vinyl siding, magnetic stripe cards, window profile, pipe, plumbing and conduit fixtures. PVC is commonly used as the insulation on electric wires. Frequently in applications where smoke is a major hazard (notably in tunnels) PVC-free LSOH (low-smoke, zero-halogen) cable insulation is used.PVC pipes are majorly used for manufacturing sewerage pipes and agricultural pipes.PVC pipes have been used for more than 60 years and show that they have very long-lasting material properties. They are easy to install, strong and durable and, when they eventually reach the end of their service life, they can be recycled back into new PVC pipes. As a result, PVC pipe systems are very cost efficient.During the survey, PVC pipes were found to be available in almost all hardware shops in all surveyed regions. The surveyed classes of PVC pipes were class A, class B and class C. The surveyed sizes range from 13mm diameter to 150mm diameter.

Many of the strongest and most impressive structures in the world today would not have been possible without hollow sections. In construction, hollow sections create lightweight and visually attractive structures that benefit communities and environments. Steel buildings are inherently adaptable and can be easily extended. Steel is lighter in weight than other construction materials. This enables extensions to be built to existing buildings without overloading their foundations. Structures can be unbolted, reconnected, modified, repaired, reused and recycled.During the survey, Hollow Steel Sections were found to be available in some few hardware shops in all surveyed regions.

At the smaller scale, there may be some overlap between what is considered plant, small plant, tools, small tools or equipment. Very broadly, tools might be considered to be instruments that are used by hand, whereas equipment might refer to a set of tools used for a single purpose. Construction plant is generally re-useable, and so as well as being purchased new, it may be purchased second hand or hired.During this survey it was found that Plants and Equipment are hired from a contractor based in the respective regions. However, in all regions the available plants and Equipments were found to be very limited. The hiring rates were per eight hours in a day and were found to vary from region to region. The mainly available plant and equipment were: Rollers, Water Bowser, Excavator, Grader, Asphalt Paver, Chip Spreader, Pneumatic Roller, Plate Compactor/Pedestrian Roller,Dozer, Wheel loader, Bitumen sprayer, Concrete mixer, Low Bed, Toyota Land Cruiser and Lorries/Tipper.

It is a part of the workforce with a very limited skill set. Unskilled labor consists of people with a high school diploma or less. However, when the economy is struggling, people with degrees may do unskilled work. In some parts of the world today, employees with law degrees are working as cleaners.Most sectors of the economy require unskilled labor. Workers with no skills are at the bottom of the socioeconomic ladder of the active population. The active population refers to people with jobs. During harvest time, farms take on lots of unskilled labor. Their work requires the minimum of training and experience.For the survey conducted it was revealed that in most regions labourers are easily available during dry season only, while during wet season people are busy with agricultural activities. In other regions such as Katavi, labour is available only in some localities of the region. It is not easy to get them in some areas due to agricultural, fishing and mining activities. Due to that, contractors are required to borrow labour force from the nearby regions. When they come to work on construction sites, sometimes they are being paid as piece work system and sometimes are being paid as per day work. The rate of payment varies from one contractor to another.Table showing the Labor Wages in Surveyed RegionsLabourUnitWage (TZS) IringaMbeyaSongweRukwaKataviRuvumaLindiMtwaraUnskilledDayPaid per piecework10,000Paid per piecework7,000Paid per piece worksPaid per piecework15,00015,000Steel fixerDayINA20,000INAINAINAINAINAINACarpenterDayINA20,000INAINAINAINAINAINAKey: INA = Information Not AvailableRECOMMENDATIONS AND WAY FORWARDFrom this survey it was found out that:Different regions have different basic price lists; the prices are competitive and not controlled in keeping with the principle of market economy (demand and supply). This indicates that competitive pricing for the construction industry is healthy as it encourages hard work and innovation. The obtained Basic Price list will be the benchmark for the establishment of Price indices which will be one of the indicator for assessing the growth of the construction industryIn view of the expansive nature of the country regulating prices in the construction industry would unrealistic due to scarcity of resources; poor infrastructure; and meager resources and distant location of sources of resources. In these instances the distant locations in the various regions necessitate the difference in pricing, and labour cost of the construction. Perhaps this anomaly could be taken care of it the economy was strong enough to afford subsidies in the construction industryThere is inadequate deployment of human resources mostly due to underdevelopment of the economy which adversely affects the construction industry hence it is recommended more professionals and technicians be trained, employed to support and back up the construction industry.In view of the collected basic price list NCC will be able to continuously update the price fluctuation formula which has been developed with the aim of reimbursing contractors for cost increases on building projects, above the tender price on labour, material and other consumablesDespite construction being an important sector of the economy, availability of construction related information/data are inadequate. Serious gaps in data are witnessed current statistics on construction activities, consumption of construction materials, employment of construction labour, construction costs, methods of financing of construction projects, etc. Therefore NCC should try hard to develop systems in regions so as to ensure a regular flow of basic price data to NCC.APPENDICESAPPENDIX I:PRICE LIST OF CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS FOR IRINGA REGIONPRICE LIST OF CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS FOR IRINGA REGION – JUNE, 2019MATERIALUNITPRICE, TSHSOURCESDISTANCE FROM TOWN/CITY, KmREMARKS????1CEMENT??32.5N/mm250kg bag15,000.00Dar, Mtwara, Mbeya, Tanga?42.5N/mm250kg bag16,000.00Ditto?White cement40kg bag30,000.00Ditto???2HIGH TENSILE STEEL REINFORCEMENTS??8mm Diaton2,650,000.00DSM?10mm Diaton2,300,000.00DSM?12mm Diaton1,971,000.00DSM?16mm Diaton1,850,000.00DSM?20mm Dia ton1,850,000.00DSM?25mm Diaton1,850,000.00DSM?32mm Diaton1,850,000.00DSM???MILD STEEL BARS8mm Diaton2,650,000.00DSM10mm Diaton2,300,000.00DSM12mm Diaton1,971,000.00DSM16mm Diaton1,850,000.00DSM20mm Dia ton1,850,000.00DSM25mm Diaton1,850,000.00DSM32mm Diaton1,850,000.00DSM3AGGREGATES??6mm Diam3130,000.00Lugoba - Coast403Price includes transport cost?10mm Diam3130,000.00Ditto?13mm Dia m3130,000.00Ditto?14mm Diam3130,000.00Ditto?19mm Diam3130,000.00Ditto?20mm Diam3130,000.00Ditto?25mm Diam3130,000.00Ditto???4SANDm317,500.004Includes transportEasy to get5.HARD COREm310,000.002Includes trsnport to town.6.READY MIX CONCRETEClass 15m3N/AClass 20m3N/AClass 25m3N/AClass 30m3N/A 7.PLANT AND EQUIPMENT HIRERoller 39008hours 700,000.00Plants and Equipment are hired from a contractor based in Iringa.
