The floor is made of a 60 cm thick continuous concrete slab, supported by 2,400 concrete piles.

 - Development of the preliminary design and terms of reference of architecture, foundations and structures, and review of detailed designs submitted by the general contractor. Construction works were monitored on site in order to guarantee a proper construction quality.
