Engineers created a ground/surface layer of large rocks, which is circled with a concrete
honeycomb pattern, which serves to protect the foundation from erosion. It took three
years to reclaim the land from the sea, while it took fewer than three years to construct
the building itself. The building contains over 70,000 m3 (92,000 cu yd) of concrete and
9,000 tons of steel
