According to AMCS, its DCS 60 (Driving Control System) zoning and anti-collision systems are key to ensuring the safety, and thus the productivity, of work on the site, where the cranes are lifting rebar, concrete, steel, and assembling the bronze fixtures that will form the outer cladding of the statue.

Once complete, the statue will stand at 182 metres high – making it the highest statue in the world.
