About bridges, bridge sections, towers and lattice masts, of iron or steel

cpc code 4211 covers the production of bridges, bridge sections, towers, and lattice masts made of iron or steel. These structural components are essential for the construction and maintenance of critical infrastructure, such as transportation networks, communication systems, and energy distribution. The industry plays a vital role in supporting economic growth and development across a wide range of sectors, from construction and engineering to manufacturing and logistics.

Production process

The production of bridges, bridge sections, towers, and lattice masts typically involves a combination of fabrication, welding, and assembly techniques. Manufacturers begin by sourcing raw materials, such as steel plates, beams, and tubes, which are then cut, shaped, and joined using advanced welding technologies. The components are then assembled into larger structures, often using specialized equipment and cranes to ensure precise alignment and structural integrity.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of cpc code 4211 items include steel and other ferrous metals, as well as various tools, machinery, and equipment used in the fabrication and assembly processes. Manufacturers may also rely on specialized software and engineering expertise to design and engineer these complex structures to meet specific requirements and safety standards.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of cpc code 4211 are bridges, bridge sections, towers, and lattice masts, which are then used in a variety of applications, such as 4212 Roads, railways and airfield runways, 4213 Utility projects, and 4214 Other construction projects. These structural components are essential for the development and maintenance of critical infrastructure, supporting the broader economy and facilitating the movement of people, goods, and services.
