I dont understand this. I always thought houses/buildings have underground supports on which the structure is erected. Doesn't have to be tall towers, all small buildings have underground support too.

How come these buildings don't have any of that? Or is the support in form of metal rods which these structures are freely screwed to?

I found this because I had a similar question, I think it might be hard to gauge how much prep work was done from the video.
