Скачать или смотреть Why Roman Concrete Has Lasted 2,000 Years

Why have Roman structures like the Pantheon and the Colosseum survived for 2,000 years, while modern concrete buildings often need major repairs after just 50? This video dives into the lost art of Opus Caementicium, or Roman concrete, to uncover its secrets.

We explore the revolutionary recipe that allowed the Romans to build immortal structures, including:

-The Divine Ingredient: A special volcanic ash that created an incredibly strong chemical bond.
-The Self-Healing Recipe: The recently discovered "hot mixing" technique that gave the concrete its own immune system to repair cracks.
-The Seawater Superpower: How Roman concrete actually gets stronger when exposed to the ocean.

Discover how scientists are now reverse-engineering this ancient super-material to create a blueprint for the sustainable buildings of our future.
