Describe the characteristics of the Construction of Jakarta MRT in Patung Pemuda Membangun's History.
The monument marks the transition between the elevated and the underground structure of the Jakarta Mass Rapid Transit. During the construction of the transition area, cut-and-cover construction of the box culvert tunnel had to commence below the statue. A temporary steel frame structure was built to protect the statue during the digging of the ground below. This protection structure consists of an H-beam kingpost, bracings, angle brackets, and a borepile at the bottom of the kingpost. After the completion of the work, this temporary protection structure was demolished and the ground foundation of the statue refilled on top of the MRT's box culvert tunnel.
