Judging by that cab over crane and the wheeled dozer I assume you’re probably somewhere besides the US. Here on a residential jobs and small commercial a CTL and mini excavator is going to win first place and backhoe is still pretty common. A dump truck probably takes 3rd place. A crane will only be there a short period, same for the cement truck, the asphalt guys probably have the only roller. Flatbed delivery truck and the piggyback forklifts ( usually moffits ) at least earn a worthy mention. On larger commercial jobs the sky is the limit with equipment.

Depending on the size of the construction site high horsepower tractors (usually articulated) could/would take the top position. Have seen as many as 11 of them on a single construction site; all used with single or tandem pull scrapers/dirt pans.
