I'm no expert on geotech issues and construction techniques, but it makes no sense to my why that field is filled with excavators at the beginning of the video. Excavators are good at digging deep holes/trenches and piling the soil up next to the hole/trench. Before construction starts, the overburden needs to be removed so you can place proper backfill, that is then compacted to spec. Where are the loaders and dump trucks? I suspect the video was make to show that China is quickly responding. They would have been better served by building temp structures (big tents) in parking lots or taking over arenas and other large indoor spaces. Building a new hospital is just dumb.
