Polygonal masonry. Why did not anyone see that this concrete technology

increasingly see the article in the building channels, where the authors follow the traditional paradigm in history and say that absolutely all objects with polygonal masonry around the world built by manual machining and lapping stones. I want to make their "two cents worth" and to show that all can not interfere in one pile. That early sites in Peru are at the basis of a concrete technology or technology forming blocks of clay from the technology, similar to the gypsum slurry.

To begin with, I do not only have theoretical and practical experience in the construction, but also ten years interested in the history of different cultures and their construction and manufacturing techniques. In this article I gave examples of riddles and drilling processing hardwood.

I'll start with examples that say polygonal masonry has two types: on the basis of manual machining and lapping blocks, and on the basis of concrete technology.

It is seen that the masonry blocks in this cut mechanically, and lapped faces fit. there are large gaps between them.

Psevdopoligonalnaya masonry from St. Petersburg (in Viborg and Kronstadt) and in Peru. The difference in abutment blocks obvious. Technology machining stone and clay technology. Third slide: Delphi, Greece - the same technology machining units. The fourth slide - The remains of the fortress of Bomarsund, Finland.

We now turn to examples of clay (concrete) technology.

The term came from plasticine technology project Laboratory alternate history - in connection with an appropriate process of external similarity allegedly molding, molding from the liquefied rock blocks.

There is a dough-like concrete - on the basis of plaster and cement as a binder. Of it (for this recipe) restorers restoring elements and interiors, columns of old buildings. It oselkovogo marble technology.

According to slides: 1. How can grind these corner blocks? This can only be done by molding. 2. This rim will only when conjugation plastic blocks. 3. The curved surface of the interface block. Such contact in a clutch or any fit lapping do!

Well, and the most demonstrative Photo - wooden stick, fastening blocks to Machu Picchu:

At the junction of the stick and stone mass is seen as an ancient concrete made out of sticks. Such compound is not applicable when machining. It is to be drilled. What for?

About sample data can be read on my second channel dedicated to these topics here. To answer your questions - first read the comments and my answers to them. All objections have been given answers there.

It is not any evidence of concrete technology. We are moving on and proceed to the next polygonal masonry blocks on which are traces of the formwork or during the marriage:

1. Wall Cusco with trace from the vertical pillar formwork. Other reasons to leave a trace (machining) is not there. 2. Marriage during molding unit. Something has got into the concrete or the dough into the mold. 3. Sagging in the bottom of the unit after the untimely removal of the formwork. Weight is not grabbed and started to crawl. She tried to correct backups. Of these examples below.

1. Traces of blocks in the rock. There is a hypothesis that the masses took to the blocks of the adjacent rocks. But these rocks were then still plastic. What were cold flyuidolity - outcrops, similar to the mineral tuff and clay from the earth. But they eventually turned to stone. That's a plastic rock and left a dent on the blocks. 2. Traces of the formwork.

Who cares what a cold flyuidolity - comments can provide a link with the description and examples.

Traces of formwork in polygonal masonry very much. The gaps between the boards remained moldable mass and now it looks like a stone protrusions. The plastic mass was inserted into the container, which are etched to form recesses incomprehensible geometry breed.

A few examples of spoilage in forming polygonal masonry blocks:

These cavities, recesses and the recesses in the blocks do not in any way resemble performed mechanically by: a chisel and hammer. I believe that this is the place backups. Sooner removed the formwork. And since used is not a simple concrete (not on the basis of Portland cement), which is gaining strength in its entirety at once, and used natural geobeton, kameneyuschy from the surface (by reaction with CO2 from the air), the inside blocks can still be plastic - slipping, sag under its weight. They had something to prop up. It is for this reason that we see the crown of polygonal masonry blocks. Where masonry is made by manual machining - this is not.

More examples of dents on the supports blocks polygonal masonry Peru

Of this type of marriage, when forming masonry units can be found hereand here - this is also my article on this topic.

On some masonry made of concrete technology, traces of mats, traces of fabric with a large thread. Cloth served as a separator between the formwork and geobetonom.

Traces fabric printed on the surface of the plastic mass.

Another interesting fact, saying that the blocks were plastic and swelled under its own weight during kameneniya - a detachment on their curved planes.

Someone might say that the rock from which you were hewn blocks of layers. And these layers peel off with time. But why are they exfoliate arched like plaster on the entire curved surface of the block? My explanation: unit swelled under its own weight. And since the surface layer has gained strength by reaction with CO2 air, then fell off as a cracked shell. Then the swelling process is stopped.

Another explanation: in the composition of the plastic rocks were bentonite clays. They absorb atmospheric moisture (the pores) and stones increased in size - swelled. It is known that bentonite clay when in contact with water increased in volume up to 16 times! They are used as waterproofing or water seal. In nature they are found in other places of the planet. They are called the growing stones Trovant.

Must see video of one author, who repeated the polygonal masonry construction of modern concrete:

And as the author gives a lot of logical evidence to support the use of concrete technology.

According to slides: 1. Bosses or "nipple" at the bottom of many units do not give rest to many interested in the topic. 2. According to the author of the video - this is the place removing screed or wooden props under the formwork after the removal of the formwork itself. Because not hardened mass in the whole volume - through the holes began to be squeezed out, and left the "nipples".

Bosses are met and blocks dolmenov Caucasian. Yes, dolmens are built exactly the same technology - from the outlet of the cold flyuidolitov from geobetona.

In some places, polygonal masonry in Peru took samples of the breed. Here is the analysis on elemental composition:

In terms of composition - a lime and sand. Like lime putty in oselkovogo marble technology. Zaguglit - interesting technology.

For me, this topic is closed for a long time after the receipt of evidence and comparison of different studies and research. But for those who can not accept other versions, hypotheses - do not propose to write an empty comment, that all this is nonsense and delusion... If there is to say - comment on arguments.

Why no one sees these facts, lying on the surface? You need to look deeper into the subject and sort through large amounts of information, analyze every oddity in the pictures. Unfortunately, most of it makes only superficially ...
