Included in this industry are industrial building general contractors, industrial building operative builders, industrial building design-build firms, and industrial building construction management firms.

Cross-References. Establishments primarily engaged in--

Constructing oil refineries and petrochemical plant--are classified in Industry 237120, Oil and Gas Pipeline and Related Structures Construction;
Constructing water treatment plants, sewage treatment plants, and pumping stations for water and sewer systems--are classified in Industry 237110, Water and Sewer Line and Related Structures Construction;
Constructing power generation plants (except hydroelectric)--are classified in Industry 237130, Power and Communication Line and Related Structures Construction;
