- Abstract
The aim of this paper is to understand the developing situation of the construction industry in Sichuan province. In this study, the annual construction industry output and labor productivity of 21 cities in Sichuan province were chosen as basic indicators from 2004 to 2014. Based on the two indicators, the absolute difference and difference coefficient were calculated to reflect to time and space change of the development of the construction industry in Sichuan province, while the Gini coefficient of construction industry in Sichuan province was calculated to evaluate the overall developing situation of the construction industry. The results show that the absolute difference and the difference coefficient in the study period were increasing year by year, but in the later, the increase of them has slowed down. The overall development of the construction industry in Sichuan province is in the stage of growth convergence and difference maintenance in Williamson converse-U curve, the construction industry takes on area-aggregation phenomenon. The results indicate that the overall development of the construction industry in Sichuan province is not balance.
