The hoop structure is provided outside of this particular scope. The epoxy coated reinforced concrete walls are designed to resist the tension induced from the light framed roof and the salt via the steel reinforcement around the radius and the concrete buttresses along the sides. The concrete buttresses are built with an angled concrete wall supported by large foundations which prevent sliding. One thing of note is that this structure does not have a typical footing to support the continuous concrete walls. The walls are placed directly on the asphalt pavement creating an empirically designed intersection that prevents salt seepage that is cost effective. There is no frost depth necessary due to the presence of salts which would prevent ice formation and the reduced concern of heaving due to the nature of the building.
