message: Diamond is housed in a silver toroidal building which covers approximately the area of 5 football pitches.
Marked for clarification because
*the area of a football pitch can vary by a factor of almost 3, and is also unfamiliar to those (like me) who have never attended a football match (or to American readers, a soccer match). I think the area should be given in standard units like hectares, acres or square kilometres.
*the next sentence says the building houses the storage ring and the beamlines, but there's no mention of the linear accelerator or the booster synchrotron. Where are they housed?

message: ″Costain Ltd constructed the building and the synchrotron hall. Significant construction achievements to note:
i) The project was completed on time and on budget;
ii) The construction of Diamond was completed with one of the lowest accident rates of a mega project completed in the UK. Over 1.3 million manhours were completed during the peak of construction without a single accident."
This adds very little to the information on Diamond itself and sounds like it was written by someone doing PR work for Costain Ltd.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.168.63.51 (talk) 23:57, 25 May 2014 (UTC)
