seventy bamboos were used in the construction of the structure with two bamboos completing a curve from one side to the other side of the project. the bamboo was cut two days prior to use to ensure that it was soft and flexible during construction - it would subsequently become rigid once built. it is possible to keep the bamboo alive after construction so that the structure remains green and supple.
