Reinforced concrete
The West side of Oval Pavilion
As we walked towards the Oval Pavilion, the reinforcing steel bars are ready to grout with cement. There is the Oval Pavilion near reinforced concrete area. The Oval Pavilion is a timber frame construction with a conical roof. As the image shows, the west side of the building is walled by timber. To reconstruct this building, we can see that there is a heap of sand that ready to be used.
The North side of Oval Pavilion
Site plan
When it comes to the north side of the building, we can see the structure of foundation system is base on pole construction. This is a construction next to Oval Pavilion which is at foundation stage. As we can see that builders are working on timber frame construction. Some areas of this footing system, they used reinforced concrete as there requires a large load.
