My presentation at the "Annual geopolymer conference" - GEOPOLYMER CAMP 2022

Wonderful Wallace, thank you for staying true to the cause, well done

Very well done Wallace! 😮🎉

Love the thought about the curves. In ancient Ireland roads curved, a lot, if there was a nice Oak tree the road would go around it, so travellers could appreciate the tree, and the tree was left alone. The same for nice topology, rock outcrops etc. Then the English (Normans) came, and the roads were straight lines. A-B, no A-b-c-d, back to c but higher land, then e as was done in times past. You can see this also in old Europe if you drive in the countryside rather than main roads. We have lost a lot of knowledge and appreciation for nature. Well done Wallace, your journey is great and I like tagging along. Keep up the good work and keep asking questions.

Great presentation Wallace

Beatiful presentation. And the coments regarding the construction method were all positives. I believe you should write a book with that architect Alex Gonzalez of how those megalithic walls were build.

[@WallaceSpirit]

Thank you soooo much :) Before writting a book I want to do a large scale experiment to try the real big challenges. Because many parts of that theory are still unanswered. Like knobs, bubble effect, placement of the stones, lifting of the stones, etc. :) Its not a complete theory yet and I already have a new one that makes the process alot easier. To be continued 💜

You didn't get to share your theory for the nubs! I think the 'concave' ones are the result of wooden support beams to keep the wall upright. The 'convex' ones seem like they were due to holes in the mold. What do you think? Great presentation by the way

[@WallaceSpirit]

convex knobs = the result of removing the "vibrating pins" when the geopolymer is not completely set. Those wodden or metal pins/post were inserted so they could hammer it to vibrate until the back of the wall to make the mix settle better and tighter. Concave knobs = the result of support 45° wodden post that were place only for the time of the construction. We still do this today when we build a retaining wall... but they used geopolymer so it left a few marks.

[@VenturaIT]

first mistake is to think they were built by people wearing sandals and loin clothes...

[@WallaceSpirit]

I dont see any problems with sandals and loin clothes 😋
