This classification does not apply to the manufacture of these products when done by construction contractors for use in the construction project.
Work activities and processes include, but are not limited to:
* Receiving raw materials from others. Raw materials include sand, gravel, cement, cinders, aggregates, mesh wire, rods, and, in some cases, plastics.
* Mixing raw materials with water.
* Feeding the mixture of raw materials and water into molds or forming machines.
* Inserting heavy mesh wire or rods into the molds for strength.
* Steam drying the formed products.
* Placing dried products in the yard for curing.
* Shipping products.
Exclusions:
* Worker hours engaged in the production of raw materials are reported separately in the applicable mining, quarrying, or excavation classification;
* Worker hours engaged in installation or erection of products manufactured under this classification are reported separately in the classification applicable to the work being performed;
* Manufacturing concrete sewer and irrigation pipes, septic tanks, and concrete products not classified elsewhere is classified in 3105-07;
