Castles, cathedrals, skyscrapers, homes and all of the buildings that humans create need to follow the laws of physics.

Understanding materials, designs, shapes and how they interact to allow for the creation of structures has been built upon generations of knowledge and more recently scientific and experimental data.

Stress, Strain, Tension, lines of force, compression, properties of materials.

Did you know brick’s ability to withstand compression would allow you to stack it as high as mt Everest. The problem though is balance.
