How precisely construction happens

Leonardo da Vinci was born on April 15, 1452, and died on May 2, 1519. 2024 - 1452 = 572 years ago And yet we still can’t beat some of his inventions

Marvelous engineering of China's yaxi expressway!

Such a innovative design by him! Leonardo da Vinci's Technical had a deep understanding of statics and mechanics, which were essential for designing a structure that could support its own weight without external support. He likely used principles of equilibrium and force distribution to ensure the bridge's stability.

No nails, screws, rope, glues, notches or other fasteners are holding the bridge in place...just friction and gravity.
