Nested in the Cadarache forest, the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ platform (pictured here looking southwest) is now teeming with activity: the roof structure for the Assembly Hall (in white) is being readied for installation in the first week of September, walls are rising in the Tokamak Pit; and groundwork has begun in the area of the cooling towers, the Control Building, the Radio Frequency Heating Building and the cryogenic plant.
On the left side of the image, a 10,000 m² warehouse for the storage of °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ components is almost completed.
