Las Construcciones son maquinas que pueden ser construidas por el Engineer usando su PDA. Las cinco construcciones disponibles son:

Construcciones
Los Engineers requieren Metal para crear, mejorar y reparar sus construcciones.
Como los jugadors, las contrucciones tienen Salud, y son destruidas cuando su salud llega a cero (ver Destruction mas abajo). Los Criticos no hacen daño extra a las construcciones. Weapons also do not suffer from damage drop off on buildings; regardless of distance, every hit does the same amount of damage (excluding splash). Lightly damaged buildings will emit smoke and sparks. Severely damaged buildings will appear to be on fire. The Spy can disable and slowly damage buildings over time using his Electro Sapper. The Demolish Tool cannot be used to destroy buildings that are in the process of being sapped.
Las construcciones se levantan automaticamente tras ser desplegagas, pero pueden construirse el doble de rápido si se golpea repetidamente con la Llave Inglesa del Engineer mientras se construye. Que varios Engineer estén golpeando a la vez la construcción tiene el mismo efecto. Una construcción puede ser destruida deliveradamente usando la PDA. Esto es útil para recolectar metal, si la construcción va a ser destruida antes de que esto ocurra.
All buildings are able to be walked through by an Engineer's teammates, however, they will appear solid towards the Engineer himself, allowing him to stand on top of his own buildings. Buildings also perform in this way towards enemies including Spies. In water, buildings function normally; however, a Sentry Gun that is fully immersed in water will not target enemies that are on dry land, and vice versa.

Note: All build time is in seconds. Levels 2 and 3 Sentry Gun build times are longer because upgrade animations cannot be skipped or hastened.
HUD
The Building HUD provides at-a-glance information on the Engineer's buildings and the Spy's Electro Sapper. The status of different aspects of the building are indicated by an icon.
Hauling
As of the July 8, 2010 Patch, buildings can be packed up and moved by their owners by pressing the alternate fire button while looking at and standing next to them. The operation is istantaneous, and the Engineer will appear carrying the building's toolbox on his shoulder to all players, while from his first-person perspective he will still carry the toolbox as a normal building construction. Damaged buildings can be packed up, but not those under the Electro Sapper's effect.
It's possible to haul one building at a time, and doing so will sensibly reduce the Engineer speed to 75% (225v), slightly slower than a Heavy, regardless of type and/or Nivel of the building. Additionally, the Engineer won't be able to switch to any weapon or item until the building is redeployed. It's still possible to use his own Teleporters (unless he is hauling the entrance or exit to his own Teleporters) and those of friendly Engineers.
While hauling a building if the Engineer is killed the building is destroyed along with him. A special kill icon representing a toolbox will be shown along the Engineer's one.
Redeploying a building won't differ from a normal construction, except that the building will construct itself at twice the normal rate, and the Engineer can still speed up the process. Higher Nivel buildings will have to cycle through all their upgrade animations before becoming operative, and cannot be packed up again until ready. Damaged buildings retain their health at the moment they were packed, and also cannot be repaired until operative again.
All the three phases -packing, hauling and redeploying- are accompanied by specific responses.
This mechanics allows for redeployment without having to completely reconstruct the hardware, thus saving metal and time, and also preserving any score tallies a building may have.
Destruction
A building can be by destroyed by his owner using the Demolish Tool or by an enemy using any weapon, including the Electro Sapper. A destruction is worth one point to the destructee and is recorded on the player's scoreboard. A destruction cannot be assisted, unless the building has been sapped previously by a Spy; the Spy will then be awarded the assist point.
Destruction points cannot be awarded to Engineers who destroy their own buildings. Furthermore, destructions will not count for buildings that are still proceeding through the setup phase. However the destruction still occurs in game, and any associated effects, such as Frontier Justice's Revenge Crits, are triggered.
When a building is destroyed, the Engineer responds with one of three responses, alerting his nearby teammates.
Demonstration
Bugs
- Taunting in front of your building and immediately picking it up gave you the ability to walk around with what appeared to be an invisible toolbox over your shoulders, which gave you an effect not unlike the "Spycrab", as seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nt9qcoE-Ylo
- You could also attack with whatever Cuerpo a cuerpo slot weapon you had equipped while under the effect of this glitch.
- This allowed the Engineer to build multiple Sentry Guns, using the console command "build 2 0".
- This also allowed the Engineer to build Lvl 2 and 3 mini Sentry Guns, by changing his loadout while in this state.
- These two exploits were later fixed in the 18th October 2010 patch.
- You could also attack with whatever Cuerpo a cuerpo slot weapon you had equipped while under the effect of this glitch.
- A redeployed Nivel 2 or Nivel 3 Sentry Gun will attempt to target enemy players at the brief instant between reaching a Nivel and starting the animation to upgrade to the next.
Curiosidades
- The Repair Node was a building that was considered as an addition for the Engineer Update but was scrapped during development.
