I’m talking about the far right wall of the building in [this](https://www.psindustries.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/DJI_0288-scaled.jpg) picture.

That fin structure allows the wall to be stronger while using less concrete. You could get an equally strong wall if you just made it a lot thicker concrete, but you can get the same strength with less material (and less cost) by structuring the wall in this way.
