Profiled steel plates, forming the foundation shaft, were driven 15 m. into the ground and a further 3m into the limestone bedrock Concrete beams, poured at regular intervals on the inside of the sheeting to stabilize the steel lining against the pressure of the soil outside Concrete construction was poured onto the bedrock, 30 meters in diameter and 7 meters thick

  26. CLIMBING FORMS AND BEAMS each cube were made with so-called self-compacting concrete. Because of its flow capacity, this type of concrete does not need vibrating.
