Heavy industry
Heavy industry does not have a single fixed meaning as compared to
light industry. In general, it is a popular term used within the name of many Japanese firms, meaning 'construction' for big projects. Example projects include the construction of large buildings, chemical plants, the H-IIA rocket and also includes the production of construction equipment such as cranes and bulldozers. Alternatively, heavy industry projects can be generalized as more
capital intensive or as requiring greater or more advanced resources, facilities or management.
