Abstract

BUILDING construction in France represents an annual financial turn - over of about 30 billion francs which places this industry in the second rank, next only to agriculture ; building construction has however remained an art based on traditional methods inherited from an ancient past.
A parallel is often drawn between the building and
automobile industries : in 1914 the cost of a medium
sized car was about twice that of a medium sized dwelling
house; to day the house costs nine times as much as the car.
