There is also a limit on how many stories it can be before you get destructive swaying. To say that engineers were mystified on how the pagodas survived is untrue. They know that a building needs a certain amount of flexibility to shake and absorb the motion. But they also know the limitations of the pagoda's structure and how it is dependent on the frequency of the shaking.

If true, where will the instructions be released?

I think this is dated information, as there are academic papers on this method of building and the engineering behind it. Little is in English so unless you read Japanese you will need to do a lot of translating. I lost a lot of files while in the hospital of late that had been on a Google drive, but I'm sure you could find this info if sincerely interested...Good Luck!

@@JayCWhiteCloud, thanks for the info. I expected that was the case as in my experience such questions would never be left to mystery in Japan.

A master craftsman and an armature narrator. God that script was cringe.
