What is construction?

Construction is when people build things from the ground up, just like you stack blocks to make a tower.

Building blocks

Imagine you have a box full of different shapes, squares, rectangles, and even some round ones. Construction is like using those shapes to create something bigger, like a house or a playground. Workers use tools such as hammers, saws, and trucks to put together materials like wood, bricks, and concrete.

How it works

  1. People plan what they want to build.
  2. They dig the ground if needed, this is called foundation work.
  3. Then, they start putting up walls, floors, and roofs using building materials.
  4. Finally, they add details like windows, doors, and paint.

It's just like making a big Lego castle, you need to plan where each piece goes, and then you put them all together step by step!
