How was the fukushima reactor built?

The Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant was constructed using standard practices for nuclear reactor design prevalent in the 1960s and 1970s. It featured boiling water reactors (BWRs) designed by General Electric, with multiple safety systems, including emergency core cooling and containment structures. Construction began in the early 1970s, and the first reactor was commissioned in 1971. The plant was designed to withstand seismic activity, but it ultimately faced catastrophic failures during the 2011 earthquake and tsunami.
