The slab is supported by three centralized cores and pin pillars at the periphery of the long, narrow volume with a frontage of 11.5m, a depth of 70m, and a height of 30m. The outer perimeter is designed as a curtain wall with horizontal interlocking windows, which is intended to visualize the activities inside the building against the surrounding school buildings.
