Abstract: This article presents an analysis of the construction sector in Spain over the last decade. Several indicators are constructed based on Input-Output tables that demonstrate that the importance attributed to this sector does not correspond to its true role in the overall Spanish economy. Although it is true that the construction industry is important for other sectors of the economy, it is also true that the sector shows indicators that are average for the Spanish economy and lower than those of the industrial sector.
