The Longest Constructions in the History of Mankind

Abstract

Construction is a complex and laborious process, as it requires the full implementation of a number of technological operations. In addition, it often takes no less time to draw up an architectural and structural project, which often changes during the construction process. Without a properly executed project, not a single significant object in the world has been built and will never be built. Therefore, the construction itself can last a very long time, but the main thing is the final result. It is only worth mentioning that the huge pyramids built in Egypt 45-46 centuries ago have survived to this day without serious damage and subsidence of the foundations. In addition, one can cite examples of many stone structures dating back to the Paleolithic era, which were earlier than them, whose structure has withstood millennia and retained its original condition. All this indicates that construction traditions have existed since time immemorial. There are great architects and builders whose names are remembered alongside saints, emperors, pharaohs, kings, and other great historical figures.
