No one answer, as there is no one construction worker. It will depend on the craft that you work in, and WHERE you are working. A skilled crane operator in a major city may make 8-9 times as much as an unskilled laborer in a rural area. Welders may make more than carpenters, electricians more than masons, etc.
The same as male carpenters. A carpenter is defined as a craftsman with a skill and experience level greater than a helper or laborer, but less than a lead carpenter. The carpenter will generally have a smaller tool inventory and may need direction to perform more advanced carpentry skills.
Because there is a lot more competition in the carpentry business then in the doctor business. There are fewer doctors then carpenters. It takes a long time to become a doctor, with expensive schools that take years to complete. That cost has to be covered by the payments to the doctors. Doctors also have higher overhead to pay.
Carpenters can and do use a wide range of materials other than wood. These can include cardboards, metals, glass and fabrics if the piece demands them.
