Great job. The only thing I would do differently is to use a key stone and not smash the stones in, and make the wall on top of the bridge higher. The key stone is shaped like a key so it will slip and still keep it's place if the bridge is failing, hopefully.

@aserta : Don't worry to much 'cause the Antic Roman ingeneers used cement, of course a special kind of cement : CaOH + pouzzolane (microscopic powder of Al + Si oxyde, coming from volcano) ... pretty strong in permanent water. In fact, here, the cement has not to be a glue between the stones, it only has to fill the space between the stones. The archictural strategy is to use only the gravity, thus the heavy weight of the structure. That's why the "arc-en-plein-ceintre", typically antic roman ...

На сколько помню, блоки под арку выдалбливались из цельного камня или выливались под опалубку из полимерного бетона, под небольшим углом со с внешней на внутреннюю сторону, создавая таким образом своего рода замок от вываливания блока, имея такой замок, блоки под арку выставлялись без скрепляющего раствора и держаться веками.

@evancourtney7746 Ай бұрын

I'm not impressed with their mortar work. Two problems: it's cement-based which means it will be harder than the stone and cause the stone to crack, plus there are gaps and air pockets in it. When the bridge fails in a few hundred years it will be due to that incorrect mortar type and the poor mortar work.

@@Lifehackerys Глупости. Мы живём в 21 веке. Доступ к информации такой, какого не было никогда у человечества. Это всё, позволяет нам увидеть то, что было тысячи лет назад. Масштаб каменного строительства был чудовищно развит. Остатки старых построек дошли до наших дней. Мало того, видно, что строили не чуть не меньше, чем строим сейчас мы. Строили в большей части именно из камня, и всё у них окупалось. То что строили наши далёкие предки, простояло тысячи лет. Даже прошедшая катастрофа, уничтожившая почти всё, не смогла стереть следы былого великолепия. А что строят сегодня? Все бетонные постройки имеют не такой уж и большой срок службы. Всего 80-100 лет, и бетон деградирует, а в холодном климате бетон живёт 70 лет. ТО что сохранилось от наших предков - до сих пор восхищает красотой и мастерством. А сейчас мастеров почти нет, одни подмастерья и разнорабочие.

I work with stone all the time and let me tell you this thing is absolutely hideous. Granite is literally one of the best stones to work with and they didn't even attempt to chisel it or fit the stones together in an appealing way. On top of that they never tooled the joints or even bothered to scrape the concrete out from between them. As a bridge it functions I guess but to put all that work in and to have it look like a giant turd at the end is an absolute shame.
