A new research station was built in East Antarctica for the Indian Ministry of Geosciences in the Antarctic summer months of 2010/11 and 2011/12. The design and planning come from the offices of bof Architekten and IMS Ingenieurgesellschaft in Hamburg, Germany.
The complex structure consists of an enveloping steel structure and a total of 134 special containers, which were integrated to transfer vertical and horizontal loads. The final structural analysis was carried out by the German engineering office of KSF in Bremerhaven.
