After completion of diaphragm construction, basement excavation was later modified with four level-bracing to allow excavation down to 15.5m below ground level for construction of five basement levels. For the foundation in the area of the main tower, barrettes were employed together with bored piles to increase load carrying capacity. Bored piles and barrettes were also incorporated as legs in the diaphragm walls to carry the load of building.
