Commercial Construction

There are eight common types of commercial construction projects we can divide the sector into, which make up the vast majority, but not all, of the involved work in the sector. These include:

1. Retail establishments: These can include your neighborhood grocery store, restaurants, chain stores, shopping malls, shipping centers, ports, and similar locations where trade takes place.

2. Medical facilities: Hospitals, doctor’s offices, rehabilitation centers, chiropractors, dentists, eyecare professionals, and massage therapists are all part of keeping people healthy and functioning.

3. Office structures: Often centered in city centers or areas of trade, office buildings provide a center point for companies to do business, whether that includes managing finance, making deals, or managing extra-office activities.

4. Hotels and lodging: Because people aren’t satisfied to stay in one place, hotels, cruise ships and other forms of lodging provide places to stay when one travels for business or pleasure.

5. Institutions: Typically focused around institutions of learning, these structures can include primary and secondary schools, colleges, universities, and research institutions that focus on advanced learning.

6. Industrial facilities: Factories, assembly plants, and processing plants all fall under this category, developing products for sale to an end-user, manufacturing these products, and packaging them for sale.

7. Sports structures: Whether this is individual recreation in the form of parks with their related structures or huge professional sports stadiums, these structures all have unique features to consider.

8. Infrastructure: To get between all of these different types of construction and to keep our society functional, infrastructure in the form of roads, utilities, airports, and train stations keep us going.
