Following is the text of the video. Beijing is building a massive new airport. Beijing Daxing Airport will be 18 square miles. It will cost $12.1 billion to build. The airport will serve 45 million passengers initially, but could eventually serve 100 million. Building the frame required 57,000 tons of steel and 56.5 million cubic feet of concrete.
