Industrial production in any state is divided into two groups. The first group - it is arbitrarily indicated by the index A - is focused on the production of means of production. This wording is given in all textbooks on economics. If you reveal this concept by example, then in this sector, machines, tools and other equipment that are used at the same industrial enterprises are produced. The second group - it is designated "B" - is engaged in the production of consumer goods. In other words, its main task is to fill the market with consumer goods of various assortments.
In this context, it should be emphasized that industrial production is fundamentally different from artisanal activity. Hundreds of machines have been installed at the textile factory, with the help of which large volumes of fabric are produced. At home, one weaver can weave several square meters of linen per day. Labor productivity in this case is incommensurable, since the difference is tens of thousands of times. From this follows a simple and logical conclusion that the industrial
method of producing consumer goods is much more efficient than any other.
The production of industrial equipment is a complex and multifaceted process. The difficulty is to establish it, to build the necessary buildings and structures. Then you need to install the equipment that is already available or on the market. Then you need to prepare specialists and technical documentation. After completing all the preparatory measures, you can start industrial production and achieve the required product quality. Of course, in practice, this simplified scheme has a large number of details and nuances. This also applies to the development of new types of equipment and the training of specialists.
The practice of recent decades has shown that industrial production can have a negative impact on the environment. The energy that is needed for production is obtained by burning coal, oil and other fuels. Combustion products enter the atmosphere and upset the existing ecological balance. Liquid
production wastes are discharged into local water bodies. Solid waste is disposed of in landfills.
Like any other, the production of industrial metal structures is also accompanied by similar phenomena. In order to reduce the burden on the environment, they began to carry out various measures to improve production technology. Currently, environmental laws have been adopted, which are binding on all industrial enterprises. It should be noted that the whole range of measures referred to here brings positive results. The environment in those regions where large industrial enterprises are concentrated has improved significantly.
