Wesley N.’s Reviews > Why Buildings Stand Up: The Strength of Architecture > Status Update

I am no longer reading this book because I felt like it's not the right book for my personal preferences. So I will however not be rating it and find another book that fits my pieces together.

I have tried to read through the pages and felt like the book I'm now holding doesn't fit in my ability to comprehend, so I will stop reading this book, yet, not gonna rate it because my personal preferences are not a factor of ratings.

I read that the Pyramids of Gizeh were made from mortar and over limestone. Years after, another Egyptian decided to make another pyramid with low-quality​ bricks.

I read about why the Egyptians built the great pyramids and the mathematics that comes into play. On the pages, there was a point where a mathematician became a new god of Egyptian stories when building the pyramids. That being said that the building structure is made out of limestone and the tools were​ hard diorite.
