How Engineers Built the Great Pyramids 4,500 years ago

Hello Friends, my name is Gaurav and check out this root here About 4,500 years ago from today Pharaoh Khufu of ancient Egypt built the largest pyramid in the world. Standing at exactly the same angle as his sibling pyramid What do you think? Is this just a mere coincidence? If yes, then let me tell you this might be the only such structure so far. With all four edges accurately aligned with their respective directions: East, West, North, and South. It points perfectly in every direction around us, highlighting each of its edges. And let me tell you, the Egyptians demonstrated this Hefi back then. When the compass had not yet been invented Now the question arises: how exactly? How could they have measured the dimensions of this two Taj Mahal-sized colossal structure? And just making a major effort would be quite sufficient. Because all the stones used in it weigh at least two tons. Fitting such heavy stones into the lower layers Even if we assume it to be easy Even then, this point remains beyond comprehension. And therefore, Frantz, search for answers to all these questions And to discuss about them I'm bringing it over, today our romantic video whose title is So, French, let's start first Some facts about the Pyramids of Giza The Great Pyramid of Giza It is locally known as Akhiti-Khufu. Its construction began around 2547 BCE. at least 1 cubic meter And even greater than that Approximately 23 lakh stones were laid. its dark chambers And there, the structures of the rebels From two different types of limestone Now you think about it 23 Lakh Normal Stone plus 50 tons of granite stone plus limestone Join all of these together When a structure is erected So won't it be huge? And here, by vast, I mean truly enormous This pyramid is approximately 146.6 m As tall as a 30-story building And its base length is approximately 230 m high The angle of inclination with it reaches exactly 51 degrees Now I know you're just saying all this nonsense You must be feeling bored, numbers seem to be piling up. But according to 2547 BCE This is a very big achievement. Because after becoming, it's like a burden For 3,800 years, the Great Pyramid world's tallest man-made structure He had kept the letter in his hand. Which record was finally broken Built in 1221 CE St. Paul's Cathedral in London After becoming Not even stood for 380 years And collapsed.

So, guys, what do you think again? How would this simple be made? Even that complex structure, without it Any modern machine or equipment So vast It is said that for thousands of years It's still a vaccine. obviously the foundation of him The pyramid of Giza, which is ours First stage of creation Before constructing any large structure It is extremely important to lay its foundation. You must have also heard the saying, "The stronger" And the deeper the root will be It will become that tall structure. But just a little bit of the Giza plateau This foundation, born of unevenness and roughness First, it was necessary to level it out. And to solve such problems The Egyptians used this tool. This is a very simple tool. Just to keep it standing firmly on the ground If the land became flat So the middle heavy pointer It coincides with the line formed at the center. Using the same auger The people of Khufu first leveled the ground. And then move on to your next one Towards solving difficulties The one who was alignment Its stage number 2 of the construction of the pyramid alignment stage Pyramids of Giza from all four directions of our meaning It is very accurately aligned. with an error of less than 0.05 degree But back then, there wasn't even a compass. So how can you make a pyramid that accurate aligned Many researchers say that Because the Egyptians were well acquainted with astronomy And they understood the northern pole It must have been identified with the help of a star that the North Pole of Earth is actually In which direction? But now, what's flying here is a major balloon, isn't it? That is, our Earth Wobbles like a drunkard due to which our pole stars change They stay, but this change Over the course of several thousand years happens, which is something in between And the situation was much the same. Even as early as 2500 BCE When there is no pole star in the north It wasn't that, then How could Khufu have found out North? We already know that ours All the stars are North Pole stars. The Earth revolves around it now. Several scientists say that if Even if it's not the pole star, it's still the North Pole. It can be identified, and they are like that that the revolution of some stars You can note them down and then those stars What is the imaginary center? They will remove it and whatever is imaginary The center will come only to us. And perhaps in the same way they did He must have found out about it too. Remember how many from back Thousands of years ago, brothers, you know The ground has become flat and Dimensions have also been marked. Now it's time. It comes during actual construction. All items meant to be worn In which to collect First is copper and wood because They were about to start construction. 23 Lakhs of stones, those that are different from each other It was supposed to be dug out from the mines. The most important thing for this excavation Didn't you need that thing? Iron, which is iron, the metal Normally, divine ornaments are made. And therefore, the Egyptians had to switch to Copper but There was a copper mine to the east of Giza. On the other side of the present Red Sea For which in Sinai The craftsmen went first along the Nile River They went to Wadi Al-Jarf And then by some boats from there Crossing the Red Sea They reached the copper mines of Sinai. But collected there Copper back from Sinai Bring the ship from across the sea, Al-Jarf It was not possible. Because their limited number of boats Either people could have come, or otherwise Copper could have been both, but not both at the same time. And thus, they settled only in the north of Sinai. Go to the Sidar Forest in Lebanon so that more boats and tools High-quality Sidar wood for making And finally When boats and Copper got together Then by the sea route And there, on his boats Dismantle again They would make a chamber beneath Samiin and seal it. so that the same reaches the construction site Until return Among the boats lying in the Vadiyal Jharf Don't steal even a single stick of wood I know, this is quite bizarre Egypt is a desert. Where stones are easily available But the tree isn't For which reason there are firewood there It was not worth less than gold. They have now become tools for digging. Now it's the turn of the stones Dig it out and take it. The thickest and smoothest layer made from vat limestone Which from the sea to this entire pyramid They made it plain and shiny. Now from among these stones Limestone can be quarried most easily. Because his mine was exactly aligned with the Giza Plateau. And Shad has been used the most throughout the entire pyramid. This was not possible in granite and white limestone masonry. Because the white limestone quarry was located 20-25 kilometers south of Turah in Piramet. And the granite mine was located approximately 800 kilometers further south, in Aswan. When the stones would come from there Then, the stones were allegedly shaped by Copernicus Tools and GGU from the Wrong Element. And mix all the powder generated during that time with the powder of other stones. It was used as cement. Then, when the time came, the stone was cut and shaped. So all this construction material passes through the Naiyl River It was taken to the construction site. Now that the construction material has arrived So what do you say? Discuss the construction process Well, I know, I'm really excited. So Khufu and his craftsmen already knew this. lifting these stones, each weighing several tons It won't be so easy to fit in one's own place. Therefore, they used a ramp system. In which three different types of ramps were used One third of the bottom of Piramit That is, large stones were to be used in one third of the portion. So that the base can be strengthened And therefore for this part So that moving large stones becomes easier But this ramp could not be used for the entire pyramid. Because for the structures above, this ramp's angle needs to be increased. Making it extremely difficult for laborers to carry heavy stones upward Therefore, two spiral ramps were constructed for the upper layers. One from the outside and one from the inside The spiral ramp outside Used for 50-ton heavy internal chambers It had been done to transport the granite blocks. And the inner spiral ramp was It was used to create the upper layers of stones weighing 1-2 tons. Vishweshwar also says that in today's times, those created outwardly Both ramps, that is, the straight ramp used for starting, known as the Eust ramp And the external spiral ramp used for transporting granite That is why we are not visible to them Because these ramps had been deliberately constructed using small stones used in them as soon as their work is completed All the stones have been removed by breaking them off from the ramp. And fitted into the upper structures of the pyramid with the help of an internal spiral ramp. And thus, finally, the birth of the Great Pyramid of Giza occurred. Stands proudly, covering more than 50,000 square kilometers today But therefore, made of approximately 2,300,000 stones The total volume of the Khufu pyramid is 2.7 × 10⁶ cubic meters. It took him approximately 20 to 30 years to become fully prepared. Every worker building the pyramid has an average volume of 1 cubic meter. At least 300 to 400 blocks must be fitted in their respective places every day. I mean, 2 minutes per block—this is way too optimistic a goal. Because to achieve this goal, craftsmen must work without any mistakes A stone would have to be shaped every 20 seconds. Even delicate materials such as Dollarite stone and copper, Metal tools and a 100% efficient pair But this doesn't seem too bizarre, does it? 100% efficiency at this time It is not possible even with the help of modern machines. Then such a huge and heavy pyramid With the help of just a few thousand people How did he manage to stand up in 20-30 years? Now, many scientists have said this about it. used in the Giza Pyramid In limestone stones Sodium, chlorine, and sulfur particles They are quite unevenly distributed. But these very elements The stones found in limestone mines are evenly spread out This means that perhaps these stones man-made Which is not dug out from this very mine Rather, limestone powder to the powder of other stones Together with Molded in a mold Amazing Light But this is not just one isolated research. The mine of Tura, about which It is said that the Giza pyramid was built for The white limestones were extracted right from here. When her samples were also tested Then it was discovered that the natural white limestones there 96-99% calcite, 0.5-2.5% cots And dolomite, gypsum, iron, alumino, silicate, and other trace minerals are present. But there, if we talk about the white limestone tiles set in the pyramids of Giza It's 85-90% calcite and a lot of special minerals. Made from opal, CT, hydroxyapatite, and silicoaluminate Jockeys are not present in the composition of any natural white limestone. So does this mean these stones were taken up not as whole stones but in the form of powder? And where it was to be placed, wasn't the paste put into a mold to shape it into a perfect stone? He is intelligent; only time will tell how true that is. Anyway, please answer my question. If Khufu and his craftsmen had built a straight ramp with a 20-degree angle for the 481-foot-tall pyramid, how long would it have been? Well, write your reply below in the comments section.
