The tallest building on the platform ... for the moment
The Cryostat Workshop, left, takes its place next to the Poloidal Field Coils Winding Facility as the second structure on the ITER platform. A total of 39 buildings or technical areas are planned in all.
Inside of the Cryostat Workshop, a giant component will be assembled. The vacuum chamber that surrounds the tokamak and the magnets (the ITER cryostat) will be approximately 30 metres tall and 30 metres wide. Four large sections will be assembled in this on-site workshop.
