The Crazy Engineering of Venice

It's also important to note that the Venetians were *masters* of Engineering when it came to shipbuilding as well. Their "Arsenal" was capable of producing a warship every day, and was one of the first places to use standardized parts- being one of the largest scale pre-industrial construction sites

[@AdobadoFantastico]

I thought the Carthaginians had standard templates for ships as well, which the Romans reverse engineered to make copies during the 1st Punic War.

[@y.r._]

@@AdobadoFantastico Yes, they had standard templates, but not standardized parts. Their ships were built a piece, not en masse.

[@Spoon80085]

@@AdobadoFantastico They had standardized designs, but they didn't have standardized parts. So, they would make the same thing, but wouldn't be using wood planks cut to the exact same specifications, or nails dohls to the same size, etc. The Arsenal was essentially an assembly line, which was what made it such an insane feat of engineering.

[@AdobadoFantastico]

Ahhh I see. Thanks for the clarification.

[@Sgtassburgler]

Phoenicians had them beat in standardized parts by many millenia.

[@ishaaandatta908]

I think Venice was one of the first places to demonstrate the power of modern engineering. A society and nation that flourished without natural resources, on the strength of its engineers. Inspirational to any engineer today.

I was in venice twice, and it feels like walking on, not in, a museum. As soon as you leave the main shopping street, you get into tiny streets, tiny spaces, tiny places, find hidden restaurants and beautiful places. It feels old and smells old, but in a wild kind of way. It's an experience for sure. You can't possibly see all of it in a few days. So many hidden corners, so many islands. Very much to explore :)

[@mistersniffer6838]

"It feels old and smells old" - Is what humans in their primordial setting smells like, without tide scented laundry soap!!

[@briangodfrey7424]

@@mistersniffer6838 I don't think s/he was referring to the smell of the living humans. (Though people throughout Europe have been perfuming with herbs and flowers for millennia.) It's the 1000 years of humans, animals, burning wood, cooking food, sea air, tidal reek, and on and on, which has permeated the stones themselves. Lots of old towns have this multi-sensory feeling of age, but it is somehow more intense in Venice than it many other ancient cities I've visited.

[@mistersniffer6838]

I didn't either until I accidently arrived there one early Saturday morning until night when I was a young man for one day doing a weekend bus trip from Germany. It was icy Winter in Germany and Switzerland, but the weather was so balmy, sunny, and warm in Italy south of the Alps. It's a magnificent historic discovery I happened on my accident during my military years for school in America taught us about Bolsheviks, Nazis, and wars, but nothing about classical art and history and culture. You should go if you like classical art, museums, and exotic experiences.

Shops selling unovsrsity books, or affordable food for students have had the possibility to open There are many museum and art Institutions, even yearly Art Festivals, like the Biennale or Film Festival, so many jobs related to these sectors have the chance to exist Many historical artifacts reside in the city, together with historical building in need of restoration, the city is ever-changing and jobs related to manageament of historical artifacts Then you have the jobs connected with the transportations, both for materials for businesses or just driving the waterbuses (or even the taxis) You also then have the various historical craftmans boutiques, like thr glass productions in Murano, or the laces in Burano, so you'd have people keeping those traditions alive. Thay, plus the many theaters in the city, providing jobs related to the handling of theater productions Since it is a normal city there are hospitals, there are police forces, and there are normal supermarkets for every daily life occurences, all those jobs have the chance to exist Then you'd have the restaurants, many typical ones or more new, the same for bars to spend to night Hotels for tourist and jobs related to that, or even tourist guides in that regard Then the black sheep of the type of jobs existing in the city, that by this point is normal, would be talking about the tourist scams, like overpriced and bad quality touristic restaurants, or like shops selling trashy contents aimed at trying to take the most money possibility from naïve tourists. That, plus people and companies buying many houses (of the already scarce ones in the market) to turn them into Over-overpriced bnbs to sell the dream to live in a house in Venice for a night or two, gatekeeping the city from people that would need those houses to live therez either for study or for work reasons (you'd have cases in a yearly basis or workers or students being kicked out from their student residences or apartments in order to rent to tourists bcs that would be more profitable).

We visited Venice in 2019 and were lucky to have an Italian friend act as our guide. He took us through back canals and dizzying alleyways - far from the tourists and gift shops. What was most amazing to me and what I remember vividly was turning a few corners and then having the awe inspiring feeling of traveling back in time. One small secret piazza, away from the touristy madness, felt as if we had transported back to the 1500s. We stood for a moment and took it all in. Then we continued, around a couple of corners and alleyways, and *poof*…just like that - we were back in the 21st century. Amazing!

[@lewisdoherty7621]

Maybe you will find this interesting: Many structures did subside, so when the rising water level became a problem, they would fill in the "ground floor" with debris and build a new story on the top of the structure. The building might be three or four stories, but they aren't the same stories that the building began with. Since the structures are straightjacketed into place by the adjoining structures, it was easy to build upward without creating unstable situations. There was a flow of ballast stones on ships going through the area, so a surplus of those could be used in the story being filled from ships taking on a lot of cargo. Archeologists have found several buried stories under buildings. The problem with this process is that historically significant buildings can't be filled and up-builded.

The first time we went our daughter was two years old and we brought her stroller not realizing that every single bridge (and hence the video there is a lot of bridges) has stairs on both sides. We did our fair share of workout that day, and a lot of tourists and locals had a good laugh at our expense… 😂 2.

I will take the many stars of the sky and change them, and because of Me, the sun and the moon will be changed---the sky will not be the same and many things on earth will be changed. ALL will be PERFECT THROUGH My WORDS. The many NATIONS within the UNIVERSE will again be divided and REPLACED by My KINGDOM, so the NATIONS UNDER THE EARTH WILL DISAPPEAR FOREVER and ALL will be ONE KINGDOM WORSHIPING Me; ALL NATIONS ON EARTH WILL BE DESTROYED and CEASE TO EXIST. 🙏 Among the PEOPLE INSIDE THE UNIVERSE, ALL that belong to the DEVIL will be DESTROYED, and ALL SATAN WORSHIPERS will be thrown into My BURNING FIRE--that is, EXCEPT for those who FOLLOW the current, ALL will be reduced to ashes. ☀️😪 When I PUNISH many PEOPLE, those in the RELIGIOUS WORLD, in different DIMENSIONS, will RETURN to My KINGDOM, CONQUERED by My WORKS, because they have SEEN the COMING of the HOLY ONE RIDING on a WHITE CLOUD. 🙏💐 ALL PEOPLE WILL BE SEPARATED according to their OWN kind, and will RECEIVE PUNISHMENTS BELONGING to their actions. EVERYONE WHO RESISTS ME WILL BE SORRY; those who do not involve Me in their deeds on earth, they, because of the way they acquit themselves, will continue to exist on earth under the rule of My children and My people. I WILL REVEAL MYSELF to so many PEOPLE and to so many NATIONS, and with MY OWN VOICE, I WILL BE HEARD UNDER the EARTH, DECLARING the COMPLETION of My great WORK for ALL HUMANITY to SEE with their OWN EYES. As My VOICE GROWS, I also observe the state of the universe. THROUGH My WORDS, so many CREATED THINGS are CHANGING EVERYTHING. Humanity is EXPOSED in its ORIGINAL FORM and slowly, each person is SEPARATE according to their kind, and FINDS their way unconsciously back to the womb of their family. This is very pleasing to Me. I am free from distraction and, inconspicuously, accomplishing My great work, and renewing all the myriad creations. When I CREATED the WORLD, I MADE ALL THINGS according to their kind, INCLUDING ALL THINGS of the SAME FORM as their kind. As the END of My PLAN of REIGN APPROACHES, I WILL RESTORE the PREVIOUS STATE of CREATION; I RESTORE ALL THINGS to their ORIGINAL order, WHICH MAKES a great CHANGE in ALL THINGS, so that ALL THINGS RETURN to the ORIGIN of My PLAN. The TIME has COME! The LAST PHASE of My PLAN is NEARLY FULFILLED. ☀️🙏 Ah, DIRTY OLD WORLD! You will definitely come under My WORDS! You will definitely LOSE VALUE according to My PLAN! Ah, the myriad things of creation! YOU will ALL RECEIVE a NEW LIFE according to My WORDS---YOUR ALMIGHTY LORD will SIGN YOU! 💐🙏 Ah, PURE and unblemished NEW WORLD! You will surely live again within My glory! Ah, MOUNT ZION! Don't be silent----I'M BACK IN VICTORY! From the center of creation, I survey the entire world. On earth, a new life has begun and humanity has gained a new hope. Ah, My people! How can you not argue with joy under My guidance? The lands shout for joy, the waters roar with joyous laughter! Ah, the LIVING coal ISRAEL! How can you not be proud because of My DESTINED DESTINY? Who cried? Who cried? The former ISRAEL is GONE, and the ISRAEL of TODAY has RISE, STRAIGHT and STANDING in the WORLD, and STANDING in the HEARTS of ALL MANKIND. ISRAEL TODAY WILL SURELY OBTAIN the source of EXISTENCE THROUGH My people! 🙏 Ah, abominable Egypt! Maybe you are no longer against Me? How are you able to take advantage of My mercy and try to escape My chastisement? How can you not exist within My chastisement? EVERYONE I LOVE will surely LIVE FOREVER, and EVERYONE AGAINST Me I will surely PERSECUTE FOREVER. Because I am a jealous God and I will not just FORGIVE PEOPLE for EVERYTHING they have DONE. I will WATCH THE ENTIRE EARTH and, as I APPEAR in the EAST of the WORLD with righteousness, majesty, wrath, and chastisement, I will REVEAL MYSELF to the multitudes of mankind. From "The WORD Appears in the Flesh". holy book Fulfilled in (John 1:1). (Ezekiel 2:9-10). (Rev. 19:13). 📥Calling and leading everyone to His lowered Kingdom or Church because it is still standing on earth in the holy place in the air/ youtube "THE CHURCH OF ALMIGHTY GOD 💐 this is the fulfillment of what He said to Peter 2,000 years ago, recorded in (Mat. 16:18'19). This is the the only Church of each one of our spirit that we must listen to or eat and drink like how we eat, dress and sleep every day so that He can guide us and change us by rejecting the evil attached by satan so as to be perfect, having attained eternal life that will enter the coming replacement of the New Heaven and New Earth. 💌 👉 Note 📨 The coming of the Spirit of God incarnated in His second and last incarnation is the fulfillment of what was prophesied in the great BOOK of REVELATION so the last day or last age has come and His coming is to judge and punish unrighteousness of a person so that the pure or perfect person will be able to enter the approaching New Heaven and New Earth in the final judgment that all souls at that time will be reborn to receive the appropriate corresponding punishment (the one that will be destroyed and will no longer exist) or the reward of living forever in the New World. 💟

The extremely genius and advanced levels of engineering of all the various Italian tribes is just truly mind-blowing. 🤯

Hello

[@secretreagent1728]

Being a modern Venetian civil engineer definitely must be its own specialization.

[@AnnaMO-kb3ir]

Incredible how these engineering feats were accomplished before all the modern technology we have today.

[@foxplayz4739]

I think Venice is a very amazing feat of engineering! I mean imagine having to boat all of the building supplies in, hand build it, and then have to troubleshoot it! It's so incredible.

[@NomadicMeow]

I've have always been fascinated with Venice because I see it in almost every movie. Hopefully, I will visit it soon!

[@primalspace]

I hope that for you too! Thank you for watching and good luck in the giveaway!

[@MRevilsnowman23]

If you find it interesting/beautiful you'll most likely like Venice. I never found it too interesting apart from the engineering aspect so I guess that's why I didn't like it that much when I visited this year. One thing I do recommeend is searching for Spar market on google maps, I went to the shop to buy water/snacks and holy shit, I've never seen a shop that has frescas in it.

[@justmiles8651]

It's crazy how people of Venice adapted to the every situation so fast. A marvelous architecture of its own kind

As a civil engineer, this is wonderfully instructive and visually dynamic. Thank you =)

[@ddaaam]

I’m a highschool student interested in these topics but I’m still not sure which I should fall to. I’m considering mostly civil eng but also environmental eng.

[@ddaaam]

In our times, the ones that work to solve the problems like the one for the water, are they civil or environmental eng? I’m a highschool student interested in these kinds of topics considering mostly civil eng but also environmental eng. I’m not clear where one’s job starts and the other finishes

[@madahmadd]

Venice is magnificent! Especially for the waste management while cities with road still struggle.

[@Doyouknowhistorydocumentary]

*I can't believe that Venice designed so many things that are still around today from scratch; it's truly a marvel of engineering, even still today.*

[@JoelMast]

I've always wanted to visit Venice, and now thanks to your video even more! it is a true marvel of engineering.

[@primalspace]

Indeed! Thanks so much for watching and good luck in the giveaway!

[@bobbylee9727]

Before watching this video, when I heard the word "Venice" I thought of spaghetti eating gondoleers singing "O Solo Mio" to tourists. I now have tons of respect for the past thousand years of engineering on the part of Venetians...what a history.

[@suksivittuun1323]

Just fyi, it's "O Sole Mio". Meaning "The Sun of Mine." It's Neapolitan.

[@practical1-j3f]

Fascinating! I never knew any of this, and just figured that the waste flowed into the canals and probably smelled terrible. Glad to be informed that I was wrong about that, and that the city was built and maintained by geniuses!

[@jonc4403]

It doesn't smell great. And it's getting worse, as sea level rise means the sea barrier has to be closed more often. If Venice is going to continue to exist (and most of the world wants it to) new solutions are going to have to be developed.

[@ilovecocogoat8744]

The engineers are genius! Really impressed by how they managed to come up with such ideas💫

[@Gig76]

This video is outstanding. As an Italian living in the US, I couldn't be more proud of what we accomplished and how beautiful some cities are. Excellent job! You definitely have one more subscriber.

[@MladenMijatov]

I wouldn't be proud of people throwing shit out of the window and pissing in the water they live next to. But to each his own I suppose.

[@Gig76]

I am talking about engineering and achievements and frankly I don’t care about what you think. Cheers!

[@bizbopbupp]

Went to Venice 2 years ago, it's in a league of its own. There's just something that other cities like Florence, Rome cannot provide.

[@vsslsmchlks]

To be fair, Florence is an animal of its own

[@migl1802]

It's weird how the bridges were built much later, considering how good they were at building structures on top of water. Thats like if car seats were invented 500 years after the automobile was invented.

[@michaelwills1926]

There’s a lot weird about this story

[@Blalack77]

That's gnarly as hell... Especially that Venice still has a lot of the ancient engineering and the wood piles are still original and everything.. I figured those rotted away 500 years ago or something.. Wild. I've been fascinated by Venice since I was a little kid.

[@metusael]

My wife wants to go to Venice to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary and I think we'll take a nice nap in those gondolas

[@kellyoconnor5684]

One of the many amazing things about Venice is that their bus system is boats. The vaporetti are a fantastic way of seeing all around the islands of Venice, for a very small fraction of the price of a gondola ride. We hopped on one at sunset, and before we knew it, it was chugging out to Murano--what an incredible experience! Happy anniversary!

[@AlexSchendel]

The simple but ingenious designs that Venice employed are rather incredible. The ingenuity it takes to design proper systems to handle the logistics of an entire city and make it all work passively without needing any sort of external power. I hope they still have some of that ingenuity left to save their city from flooding... Their incredibly expensive and complicated movable dams certainly didn't work. I'd be interested in a video about Venice's current fitting predicament and any solutions that are being looked at.

[@giovannimoriggi5833]

It seems that a system to raise the level of the city is being seriously investigated by the Italians, based on filling the layers beneath the foundations with water, because they naturally contain pockets of water. A long and gentle progress. They could save the city from water, using water itself. A circle that closes!

[@mrnevinmathews]

Venice is absolutely breathtaking! I love exploring its intricate network of canals and historic architecture. The beautifully crafted bridges are a marvel, each one with its own unique charm, adding to the city's vibrant cultural heritage and timeless allure.

[@primalspace]

Agreed! It's a pretty spectacular place. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and good luck in the giveaway.
