TO anyone who is thinking that this theory has any validity, I posit one question.
To get concrete, you must burn limestone. Where did the the constructors of the Great Pyramid get the heat to burn the hundreds of thousands of tons of limestone to make the concrete?
How about if you grind it up to fine sand and add a little something...?
You mix up a chemical reaction, you don’t burn it. You can use the leftover material from the dredging and molding process to add heat to the mix by burning that.
Gee. To those who think the pyramids were built of quarried limestone blocks, where did they get the tons of limestone?
To get concrete, you must burn limestoneOh, burn. Uh, no. There are many ways to make concrete.
Like most of the world, You don’t know the difference between cement and concrete. No person from New York or points east knows he has been wrong his whole life for confusing the two. Every American reporter except those for Engineering News Record, ignorantly calls concrete cement.
Concrete is made from cement and various sized aggregates from very small..... sand to larger gravel.
There are two common types of concrete, portland cement and asphalt.
Portland Cement is the gray sintered powder made from limestone and used with water and aggregates to make concrete. The concrete takes 28 days to reach near full strength and when reinforced with steel is a primary structural building material. It has zero flexibility unless reinforced with steel but has exceptional compressive strength.
Asphaltum or bitumen heated and then mixed with aggregates of various sizes is called asphalt concrete and is used for roads and parking lots. It has good flexibility and compressive strength. The flex makes it good for roads.
Lastly, Portland cement mixed with sand is mortar. Mortar is used by masons to build brick or block or stne wall.
