Cloud Build charges for build-minutes consumed above a certain threshold.
A build-minute is incurred for every minute that a build initiated by

are billed at the actual number of seconds consumed. Data transfer
networking charges are included in build-minute charges.
Build-minutes are not incurred for the time that a build is queued. Charges are
accrued to the billing account associated with the Google Cloud console project
that initiated the build.
