There is an enormous amount of data contained in these annual publications and, with two to choose from, there is a book for everyone. The Handbook deals with projects of a more complex nature covering values over and above $1.5 million. If your project is of a more domestic nature with a smaller project value that is below $1.5 million, the Cost Guide is more appropriate, also including a renovation section.

to enquire about past editions of our publications.
The aim was to deliver this information in one annual book which would include information for all Australian states and the first edition of Rawlinsons Australian Construction Handbook was released in 1983. The Handbook was such a success that in 1993 we were again approached to produce a similar publication, but for domestic and small commercial projects.
The result was Rawlinsons Construction Cost Guide. Rawlinsons has become the leading publisher of construction cost data in Australia, producing annual editions of Rawlinsons Australian Construction Handbook and Rawlinsons Construction Cost Guide. Another addition to our publications is Rawlinsons Process Engineering Handbook, which has been specifically developed for mining, oil and gas projects. See Icon above for detailed information and order form.
