OTOH, capital intensive businesses also have high barriers to entry. For example latest Worth named Florida Rock (sorry don't have symbol) as one of 7 great value stocks. Builders go to the nearest source of concrete, etc., and Florida Rock is expected to continue to ride a wave of new development in state of Fla. I have done no research besides reading the article but may look further. And one other thought...I suspect mfrs of aggregates have mostly fixed costs (aside from fluctuations in raw materials), versus construction companies which for example, I suspect often have to eat project budget overruns , suffer penalties for missing benchmark deadlines and such, depending on contract.
