The Australian Industry Group (AiG) released its construction data for Australia on late Monday evening. The Ai Group/HIA Australian Performance of Construction Index dropped to 46.7 in May from 50.8 in April.
A reading above 50 indicates expansion in the sector, a reading below 50 indicates contraction.
The decline was mainly driven by a drop in apartment building.
