Engineering Practice Updating the Plant Cost Index

the Equipment sub-index was partly due to sharp increases in fabricated equipment prices, which were driven, in turn, by jumps in the costs of raw materials (for instance, stainless steel). Because this sub-index contributed so much (61%) to the composite CEPCI, the latter exhibited very similar behav-ior; the two curves are nearly parallel.
