The interpretation of KDY differs from source to source, but usually it's a nearly complete ring of stations around the planet. In some books they talk about massive orbital platforms specifically built to manufacture Super Star Destroyers, which I inferred to mean they were separate from the main ring. It would make sense given the Empire wanted construction of the SSDs to be a secret.
