What Is Civil Construction?
Civil construction is the building of core infrastructure needed for day to day living. This includes roads, airports, defense, pipelines, bridges and railways. It is a $10 billion a year Australian business, and crucial to the Australian economy. This makes jobs plentiful, with skilled workers in civil construction being in constant demand.
