LEGO Technic set 42023, Construction Crew, was released in 2014 as part of the Technic theme. With 836 pieces, it represents a construction subject built around technical assemblies and worksite machinery rather than minifigure based storytelling.

Construction Crew belongs to the LEGO Technic range of work vehicle and construction themed sets. Its subject is presented through mechanical building methods, exposed structures and functional looking assemblies, placing the emphasis on engineering style construction rather than a character driven scene.

Its build is based on Technic elements and structural subassemblies that convey a worksite theme.

It suits Technic collectors, builders interested in construction machinery and those looking for a parts based technical set. On display, it reads clearly as a worksite entry in the Technic theme. In a collection, it sits naturally beside other Technic models based on utility vehicles and working machines.
