I see these things at construction sites pretty often and have no idea what they are for.

It’s about 5 feet tall, 2 feet wide, 2 feet deep, 3-inch wall thickness and hollow. Big circular indents on each side. They’re usually empty, sometimes with random litter inside.

What is its purpose?

It is a crime that you got downvoted for this truth.

Fair, but, like, do down votes actually matter on lemmy? Or, y'know, anywhere else for that matter? I'm not really bothered. I brought joy to a few people who thought it was funny. Lol.
