Architects warn $1b airport may not be watertight

Expert blames poor quality materials used in construction

Architects say the new 7 billion yuan ($1.12 billion) terminal at Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport might continue to experience leaks during severe storms, as it includes more than 38,000 skylights.

However, Shenzhen Airport Group, the owner, said leaks that occurred on Sunday were only slight and the problem could be solved when the rain stopped.
