As the site at Springvale Station is still in its early stages, there is minimal evidence of floor systems. From talks with the architects, it was explained that the predominant flooring system will come in the form of large concrete slabs places over the retaining walls to form a kind of bridge over the underground section of the station. In terms of wall systems, as this is again mainly an underground structure, many piles are needed to be drilled about 10-12m into the ground before a retaining wall can be created out of them. The structure will be dug out at a level of 7m under the ground at its deepest point.
