construction-grade
For professional builders
Construction-grade describes materials or equipment built to withstand the demands of building sites—durable, heavy-duty, and designed for professional rather than consumer use.
Construction-grade lumber meets standards for structural integrity.
The term sometimes appears ironically for anything robust or industrial-looking: construction-grade coffee strong enough to fuel a long shift.
