Recent vision-language-action models offer a path toward robots with broader capabilities than conventional task-specific systems. Deploying such systems in construction, however, requires a precise inventory of worker activities and the capabilities needed to execute them. We present TARCAT, an occupation-grounded taxonomy derived from 91 O*NET task statements across seven high-employment construction occupations and 30 instructional videos. TARCAT defines 41 primitives spanning intellectual, social, and physical categories and provides a mechanism for composing parameterized primitive sequences into reusable skills. This human-interpretable vocabulary supports the specification of robot requirements and enables coding agents to retrieve and extend skill libraries for task execution. We also demonstrate selected primitives on a DOBOT CR3 arm with a CRAFT hand. TARCAT thus provides a common vocabulary for analyzing construction work and developing general-purpose construction robots. Annotations are available at https://github.com/AICPS/TARCAT-Taxonomy.
