Bulldozers and cranes
Construction machinery refers to heavy equipment used in building, earthmoving, and civil engineering projects.
This category includes excavators, bulldozers, cranes, loaders, and concrete mixers—machines designed for tasks like digging, lifting, grading, and demolition that would be impossible or impractical by hand.
The term encompasses both the individual machines and the industry sector that manufactures and services them.
The construction machinery on site included two excavators and a tower crane.
