WOW THE KNOWLEDGE HAS BEEN THERE FOR ALL THIS TIME AND THANKS TO YOUR ARTICLE VERY PLEASED TO HAVE READ IT,ASSIMILATED THE IMPCT AND THE REASON WHY CEMENT TODAY POURED IN SUB ZERO NO LONGER CAN BE JUSTIFIED EXCEPT TO MAKE STRUCTURES YEAR ROUND WITH A REVENUE STREAM AND NO ACCOUNTABILITY AS TO DURABILITY BUT A LASTING COST TURN OVER.

“If the Romans put so much effort into making an outstanding construction material, following all of the detailed recipes that had been optimized over the course of many centuries, why would they put so little effort into ensuring the production of a well-mixed final product? There has to be more to this story.”
We will not see it used in our roads and bridges. Those construction lobbies are too powerful. We can’t have roads that last for centuries rather than a decade or two.
Wow….so many dummies when it comes to “just look up plaster used in pyramids” or castles!
Yup that’s the stuff! No secret ever! I have a plaster company and applied thousands of feet of this product! Beautiful stuff! It’s called European plaster…you will never have to paint or do anything to your walls and ceiling’s for life! It gets more beautiful with time and it’s a great sound buffer I applied it to so many babies rooms not to mention that it’s great if you have allergies! It actually cleans the air! Only one more thing…it actually kills bugs, the lime burns there feet so no more spiders in my house!
Sadly, panned obsolescence is a real thing everywhere. Look no further than auto manufacturing. Good car builders (e.g., Toyota) create products lasting decades of regular use. Most, if not all the others, build vehicles designed w/ a life of no more than five years.
No, no, no dam that Toyota. This was likely a common phrase in Dearborn, Detroit, Stuttgart, and Seoul. Toyota was forcing them to build better products. So, from the heavens came the EV. The EV can be PROGRAMED to die after ‘x’ year or ‘y’ miles; or, to break making work generating revenue. They think we are stupid . . . we some of us ain’t so dumb.
The reverence of God is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and Instruction, Proverbs 1:7, because the knowledge of God is so far above mortal humans, that it cannot yet be comprehended, 1 Corinthians 2:9-14, by the carnally minded, Romans 8:6, who are more concerned with money, power, sex, artificial intelligence, death, and all things that perish with time, just like “concrete”, because the things of this evil world, Galatians 1:4, where we are born in sinful flesh, Romans 8:3, cannot be compared to the spiritual magnificence of the Kingdom of God, and as humans, we simply think too small, with the innate wisdom of a fool, but that will soon change, because the wisdom of fools is foolishness.

There is nothing new under the sun .
The Romans were meticulous record keepers but there is no records on their process?

Like most everything else, Italians do (did) it better. It’s a mentality that just “ok” is never acceptable.

They stole this from Wakanda, it was one of the first documented cases of cultural appropriation.
