Zutari was appointed to oversee the design and construction, which included preliminary and detailed design, verification, and construction monitoring for the dish foundations. The scope also covered the provision of power and fibre networks for long-distance data transmission, as well as the development of access roads, platforms, an RFI-shielded container, offices, a kitchen, and a fully equipped construction camp.

The construction camp accommodated 250 people and included essential services such as a water supply system and a wastewater treatment plant. Zutari’s multidisciplinary team, comprising structural, geotechnical, roads, electrical, fibre, water, and project management specialists, collaborated seamlessly across offices and the remote site.

To meet the stringent technical standards, Zutari employed advanced 3D numerical modelling to simulate ground behaviour and assess stiffness under varying soil conditions. By developing a full 3D geological model, the team was able to predict rock levels and ground performance with high precision, even in areas where data was limited.

Due to RFI restrictions, no digital devices or unapproved vehicles were permitted on-site. This constraint required the team to devise creative, non-digital alternatives for several construction activities, ensuring compliance without compromising quality or safety.
