The Kansai Airport is more than twice as long as this and it has already withstood a 7.2 magnitude earthquake. Separation joints would be specified. Base isolators would isolate the building structure from the moving ground. In contrast to a tower, a low center of gravity or mass should minimize any harmful vibrations in the structure.

Esta es la intención. El proyecto se encuentra en un sitio previamente industrial en las afueras del centro urbano de Ereván. La propuesta restaura parcialmente el sitio a su estado pre-industrial. La propuesta crea superficie verde plantada, en lugar de destruirla. -FF Hola José, estoy de acuerdo con usted. Esta es la intención.

Veo que la intervención no es sustentable queriendo dar la apariencia de que lo es.
