the leaning tower of pisa is slanted right?
well how does the structure keep it steady?
in the first place, this tower was designed to be vertical and to be a bell tower.
this was its structure.
the central body is a hollow cylinder,formed by an external wall facing of shaped ashlars in white and grey San Giuliano limestone, an inner wall facing also of worked limestone and, between these two wall facings, an annular masonry area.
but how did it slant to 1 side?
lots of problems ocurred which made this construction last for a few centuries.
in 1185,at the height of the 4th order,there was a probable interruption which made its structure different already.
Blast some music.
