The four main pillars in the center of the prayer hall are 6.2 m high, while the 12 supporting poles at the edges are 3 meters high. At the base of the pillars, there is a wooden frame that extends around and binds the edge post. Each side pole is then joined with a wooden support at the top. Ribs and battens are also made of wood, and all is joined using wooden pegs. Most of the wood is from jackfruit trees.

| Project Description | The Maritime Asia Heritage Survey works to systematically inventory and digitally document the endangered cultural heritage in the Maldives, Indonesia, and elswhere across the region. The materials documented through this work are critically endangered, facing both natural and human threats that jeopardize the survival and accessibility of historical information for this vital node in pre-modern global economic and religious networks at the cross-roads of an interconnected Indian Ocean world. The data made available here was collected by our Field Team using FARO Focus S350 Lidar scanner, Nikon D750 DSLR, and DJI Phantom 4 Pro drone, DJI Matrice 300RTK with ZenMuse L1 and P1 payloads. |
