The temple's base will be filled up with 44 layers of cohesive material with each being 300 mm in length. The layers will be compressed by running two kinds of rollers- 10 and 12 tons.
Rai said, "The construction committee will use simple and vibratory rollers. After each rolling process, the 300 mm layer will be compressed to around 250 mm."
"The Ram Temple will be built in about two and a half acres and a wall will be built around it, which is called Parkota. Retaining walls will be built inside the ground to prevent the effects of floods. This work will be completed in three years and with this preparation, we are doing all the work," Rai said.

The task of carrying out the construction work of Ram Temple has been given to Larsen and Toubro.
