-        30MPa Concrete = 17 800m³

-        Formwork = 49 200m²

-        Roof Sheeting / Cladding = 4 225m²

-        7MPa Bricks = 2 785 000 bricks

-        Pavers = 40 350 m²

Granite boulders for breakwater = 48 000m³

Mass earthworks to form the platform and major retaining wall was constructed to form a barrier against the Atlantic Ocean. The cement used was 32.5N and 42.5N CEM II Ohorongo Cement, and most of the concrete was ready-mix provided and most of the concrete was ready-mix provided by Q-Crete.
