Air Spring housing in place and start of reinforcing steel placement. Note styrofoam lining the pit. This will be removed after the concrete pour to form a 25mm void. The air springs will lift the inertia block by 25mm to form a void underneath. The void space is also vented.

This picture shows completed reinforcing steel and conduits in place. After the concrete pour pneumatic air lines will be drawn through the conduits and connected to the air springs via levelling valves.
