The 4 main types of construction are residential, commercial, industrial, and civil/infrastructure.
Residential construction involves building single-family homes and multi-family units such as apartments, townhomes and condominiums.
Commercial construction is any building that is used for business purposes, like office buildings, retail stores, and restaurants.
Industrial construction is usually related to the manufacturing industry, such as factories and warehouses.
Finally, civil/infrastructure construction includes airports, roads, bridges, and other infrastructure projects.
