Construction industry is related to the building and assembling of any structure on site. Many people think of construction as one thing, but it’s a series of tasks which combine to make one project. In a normal construction project, there is a project manager which oversees the specific operation, as well as subcontractors like painters and carpenters as well as internal employees. The whole operation is headed by someone titled the construction manager.

There are three main types of construction: building construction, residential construction, and heavy/highway construction. Building construction refers to adding another structure to real property. The majority of building construction is small projects like renovating or adding a room in an already existing house. These tend to be smaller projects than the other two. Residential construction refers to a private family finding construction companies to build their own house from the ground up or even building their own houses and subcontracting people to help out. Heavy/highway construction projects are usually the biggest and headed government agencies either at the local or national level.
