Egypt's Great Pyramid: How it was Constructed - The Inset Ramp

What makes it even greater is the fact that it has chambers that isn’t carved after the Pyramid was finished but is planned and built while the Pyramid is being constructed.

That was an animation. Think instead each person is able to pull 200 lbs up a 10% grade and you need 40 people. Given that a lot of men can lift 200 lbs this is easily doable. At a 10% grade they would be in effect lifting 40 pounds plus overcoming friction, so say 60 pounds in total if the gravel can "roll" and the coefficient of friction is 50%. Add camels and you probably only need 10 camels, each pulling 800 pounds but due to the 10% slope experiencing 80 pounds of weight plus 400 pounds of friction at 50%. If we say the coefficient of friction is 50%, which is pretty high for rock on rock, each camel would have to tow 480 pounds of force. I think that can be done if you whip them enough. If not add more camels.

The rooms are pretty easy if you work in layers. You could just make a plan from both sides and the top and then not put stones in the room that you created. This would barely require more planning than the pyramids themselves. And since the stones probably weren't put up with lightning speed, you could easily control the actual build so that everything is in the right place.

Nice work, will you please show how they made the 90 degree turns at each corner while pulling up the blocks. At some point you can no longer pull the block with a team, you would have to push it to get it to the corner first. It's an engineering problem that has to be addressed or the whole idea is not complete. Most of the ramp ideas I've seen overlook and just assume they had a way to turn it, but not explain how. I've seen seen some explanations showing elaborate lever machines at the corner but like most things, a simple answer was likely more the truth, I'd like to hear some ideas on how.

[@frankrobinson8852]

A well placed block could be laid so that one side of the block being pulled stops moving, meaning it turns on the spot. To do that would potentially mean friction on the ropes if the team had to move round the corner ( the ropes then rubbing against the walls ) but a vertical hollow post slotted over a vertical solid post, creating a roller, wouldn’t be beyond their engineering capabilities, I don’t think. No idea if any of that is feasible at all…?

I think it would be easy enough to accomplish with some wheels and a pulley system to redirect the rope, something they should have had back then. After all, they had the techniques to cut stone and they must have had lathe systems to make the perfectly round vases.

Staying away from proposed solutions (thinking out of the box), here is my idea that could work, step-by-step: 1. Centre-Outward Construction - Starting each layer from the center and working outward would allow a controlled stacking process, reducing the need for large external ramps or complex transportation on higher layers. - This method would ensure that workers had stable ground as they moved outward, with the base of each layer already supporting the weight of the stones. 2. Counterweight and Crankshaft System - Using a **crankshaft mechanism** with a counterweight, such as a large container filled with sand, could allow for a controlled lifting of each stone. Here’s how this could work: - One end of a crankshaft is attached to the stone, and the other to a large container. - As sand is poured into the container, its weight creates a downward force. Once the weight of the sand exceeds the weight of the rock, the rock would start to lift. - The "crankshaft" enables a controlled, smooth lift by converting rotational motion into linear motion, making it easier to hoist the stone precisely to the desired height. 3. Advantages of a Sand-Based Counterweight - Using sand as the counterweight is brilliant because "sand’s weight can be adjusted gradually" by adding or removing sand, allowing fine control over the lift. - Sand is also abundant, especially in Egypt, and easy to move, making it a practical resource for a counterweight. 4. How This Method Could Work in Practice - As each layer is completed from the center outward, workers could dismantle and move the counterweight system to the next location where lifting is needed. - Once a stone reaches the desired height, it could be maneuvered into place using small ramps or levers for final positioning. 5. Practicality of my method - This method could potentially eliminate the need for massive ramps, leveraging "internal structural support" from completed layers. - Building from the center outward would minimize the distance each stone needs to travel horizontally, especially as the pyramid narrows near the top. Possible Challenges - Constructing and maintaining crankshaft mechanisms capable of lifting such heavy weights without modern materials would be a challenge, but with wood, stone, and simple tools, the Egyptians might have crafted durable, if basic, crankshafts. - Precision placement of each stone might require additional guidance systems, like sledges or rollers, but this approach could be adapted with small adjustments. My concept of "using a crankshaft with a sand counterweight" could indeed have been a practical and achievable method for lifting large stones with minimal force, especially if they built from the center outward. This system leverages both ancient engineering principles and available materials, making it a highly plausible alternative to traditional theories!

The weight of the blocks would cause the timbers and blocks to dig themselves into the sand as you pulled them forward. The rail type system, made out of metal not wood I believe, would allow the blocks to be managed much easier and without as much effort.

Technically it is feasible, however, the alignment between two blocks we know has a gap of circa 100 µm and therefore these blocks could have been geopolymer limestone molded on site - this I suppose is an hypotheses for all the megaliths like in Baalbek (Lebanon) 5 x 20 x 3,6 m, weigh more that 800 tons (metric).

Except for the casing stones, the fitting of the blocks is very crude. There are even large gaps. Just take a look at a closeup picture of the pyramid exterior. Only in certain cases, like the King's Chamber, is the fitting of stones very good. 99% of the pyramid has very poor fitting of stones.

[@sergioad5604]

@@scotth6814 Thanks for participating, We are comparing materials like limestone, granite, basalt, and mud bricks; technology hypotheses - not only the pyramids but all the megaliths at the time when human civilization maybe was not developed in masonry or was it? Limestone and mud bricks can be synthetic - find utube footage “Building the Pyramids of Egypt with Artificial Stones” or read Joseph Davidovits. How precise could have been ancient civilizations in cutting basalt and granite (hardness 6 and 8)? Slaves or workers or there were human rights? (see Code of Hammurabi). The analysis has to be multi disciplined and maybe astonish us. If we look at Gobekli Tepe it should - it is not about answers but doubts and likelihood, at least that is how we operate the scientific method.

@@sergioad5604 I did read Davidovits' book long ago. And I saw a demonstration of him making a synthetic block. It was a SLOW process and took a LOT of resources. It just doesn't make sense to build an entire pyramid that way. Now if every one of the 2.5 million blocks was exactly the same, and fit together like Lego bricks, then I would be convinced. I have seen blocks cut by saw in an experiment. See Scientists Against Myths (I think that's what the channel was called).

The problem with the inset ramp are the gabled roof stones of the King's Chamber. Situated about half way up the pyramid (200ft), the roof stones of the King's Chamber weigh upwards of 50 tons and are about 26ft long. It would require upward of 600 people to pull those stones up the ramp, but they could not pull at a right angle (they could not pull the roof stones around the corners of an inset ramp). A inset ramp would have to extend 50 or 60 feet beyond the point of each turn, and sturdy enough to hold the weight of 600 people and half of the 50 ton stone, ( a ramp capable of supporting 100 tons ! ) That alone would be a monumental engineering feat !

[@molly1117]

You wouldn't need to use the ramp the entire distance or go around the corners. Bring the roof stones as far up the ramp as possible and set them on the floor of that level (or simply lay them on the first level). When the next level is laid, lever them up onto that floor and fill in the lower space where they were. Continue until the stones are at the level they are intended to be used. Today I watched my 75-ish-year-old uncle move a massive glue-lam beam sideways and diagonally across the floor of a house under construction--by himself with no help--using four 2x4's, a crowbar and four short lengths of steel pipe. Took him about 8 minutes. I was amazed. Of course the stones are much heavier and larger, but it would still be completely doable to lift and move them using leverage and balance.

For elegance of process it would be much easier to build the spiral ramp internally, perhaps 10 or 15 feet from the outer surface and allow the finishing of the exterior to proceed without the obstructions that would attend an external inset ramp, this has been strongly suggested elsewhere: I would invite the reader to note also that the Royal Causeway to Kafres pyramid has an incline of one in 10: not too bad the stones, the grand gallery in Khufu's pyramid ascends at an angle of about 26 1/4° so very much tougher hauling stones up that?.

[@goobytron2888]

How much time would this process take? I’ve always been more amazed by how they cut the stones. Wouldn’t there be lines from the instep ramps when back filled? Those block would have angled cuts to fit the angle of the ramp. Otherwise they would have to cut back the ramps to be horizontal before they backfilled. But then those blocks would still have different reveal lines. I think no matter what there would be some kind of visual artifact that indicated the ramps were once there.

[@greenhornadventure]

The ramps could have been constructed with rubble, sand, and gravel from the block cutting process, then removed to allow the final stones to be placed without having to cut any sloping blocks. Or wooden piers could have been constructed to support the rails.

[@goobytron2888]

@@greenhornadventure I think understand what you mean. But wouldn’t there be very little headroom at the end of the ramp? I’ve always tried to imagine if they could have build the first level, then buried it in the sand, next level, bury it and keep continuing burying each level as they built. It would allow them to bring blocks up the sand slopes from all different directions at the same time. When finished remove all the sand. It would be a ridiculous amount of earth to move. But I think it would solve the lifting problem at least.

[@hasarutoetensakey7091]

Solid granite

[@johannjohann6523]

they didn't cut them. The sandstone blocks are made with wood frames and the Egyptians used a sandstone type of concrete to pour into the wood molds. That's how you get them to fit so well, and not spend alot of time moving them. Still no less amazing using concrete than cut blocks. However, the huge pink granite stones used for the King and Queen's chamber were cut granite from the Aswan quarry 500 miles away. The "Grand Gallery" was used to lift the heavy blocks into place through ropes and pulleys through a counterbalance method and I guess a whole bunch of people. The King's chamber "air vents" show distinct marks of a tube drill (most likely diamond tipped hard carbon steel blade like we use today, as very little else will cut granite) which means electric power tools. A hand drill operated by humans could not cut the granite by making enough rpm's of the blad and pressure needed to push the blade into the granite to cut it. It is not hard to make electricity. Most likely the electric was created by a hydro-electric generator using the Nile (The pyramid could have been used like a capacitor only. not to create electricity.) A generator is simply a copper stator (hunk of copper) that spins. In America the very first electric plant was a hydro-electric plant at Niagara Falls. The falls spun the generator creating the electricity. The Nile could do the same and most likely did. This still does not explain how they moved the many ton granite blocks. My theory is they had to create a rail type system, much like our trains of today - less the engine to move the blocks. You would have to get the blocks off of the sand because the weight if you tried to push or pull the blocks would cause the blocks to sink into the sand. Sand is not a good foundation. This doesn'r mean every Egyptian had electricity in their hut. But a few tools and electrical devices reserved for the Pharoah only. Check out "History for Granite" about the air shafts in the King's chamber. And "UnCharted X" about the the 40,000 granite vases found that have been manufactured so precise the tolerances are that of a human hair. One thousandth of a millimeter variances. He is the first to have the vases scanned with laser 3D topology and computers. The results are amazing (showing that machines were used to create the vases). And should be the "buzz" in the antiquities world. But sadly is not thanks to mainstream archaeologists about to lose their jobs for 1) lying to the public, and 2) missing so much when the evidence is right in front of them. lol! Also, Uncharted X has some of "the best" video of ancient Egypt sites on KZbin. No flashy computer generation graphics or cheesy actors dressed in ancient Egyptian garb either. lol! (Most buildings that look like "cut" stones are indeed a type of concrete. But there are still a few that are cut and moved stones. Which is still a mystery. Take care!)

Check out a channel named "the World of Antiquity" for dozens of examples. What artificial lakes? What's the problem in fitting a smaller object into a bigger room? Your 1000 ton obelisk has been discussed dozens of time in literature, assuming that you're talking about the one in Aswan. The obelisk shows very clear signs how it was worked, practically every single stage of it. The fact that you refuse to understand it does not make it a mystery. What lies? Who got caught and where and about what? If you are talking about Schoch's sphinx erosion or Hancock's theories, both have been disproven. The sphinx has been studied by several geologists, and Schoch is the only one who ended up with the conclusion that it must be from 11000 BCE. Jørn Christiansen, August Matthusen etc. have contested Schoch's claim and Schoch never defended his view, indicating that he is out of arguments and thus wrong. All claims about the earlier origins of the pyramids as well are pure imagination without any evidence. There is literally not a single piece of conrete evidence that any of the Egyptian pyramids predate their current chronology by a great margin. Or if you disagree, what is this evidence?
