The unions have agreed to recommend the offer.
Steve Murphy, General Secretary of construction union Ucatt, said: "This is the best offer which could be achieved through long and arduous negotiations. This is an improvement on previous offers from the employer's side. However, even with the increase in pay these rates do not reflect the hard work, skills and dedication of construction workers."
