The foundation form of the Leaning Tower of Pisa: pile foundation.

The three major towers in the world are: the Leaning Tower of Pisa, the Eiffel Tower, and the Yingxian Wooden Tower.

1. Leaning Tower of Pisa.

The first thing we want to talk about is the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy, I believe it goes without saying that everyone knows that this tower is "strange" in **. The Leaning Tower of Pisa has been tilted since 1174, and by 2001, the tilt angle of the tower has been degrees, and its top floor is even more prominent, and it deserves to be the world's strange tower.

2. Eiffel Tower.

The world-famous Eiffel Tower is one of the most visited towers in the world every year and is the most iconic building in Paris, with a total height of 324 meters, making it the tallest building in Paris. The Eiffel Tower is known as the "Iron Lady" because the entire tower is made up of countless steel parts, and 2.59 million rivets alone are used.

3. Wooden tower in Yingxian County.

The whole Shakyamuni Pagoda is all made of wood, its nearly 70 meters high tower is not even a single iron nail, and simple or slender and also very delicate, solid, the Buddha tooth relics enshrined in the tower are rare treasures.

The structural function of the tower.

The ancient Indian barrier wave is a solid building composed of four parts: the base, the covered bowl, the treasure box, and the phase wheel. The Chinese tower is generally composed of an underground palace, a tower base, a tower body, a tower top and a tower stop. The underground palace contains relics, located below the ground in the middle of the tower base.

The base of the tower includes an abutment and a pedestal. The tower is on top of the tower and is usually composed of a Sumeru seat, a lotus lotus, a covered bowl, a phase wheel and a jewel; There are also tasha with treasure covers, round lights, moon and orbs on top of the phase wheel. These formations evolved from the Blockage Wave.

The practical function of the tower is not very restricted, the form is relatively free, and most of them are built by the believers to raise funds or national and local funding, often do not hesitate to spend a lot of money to show piety, and the structure is also very diverse, so the style is very rich, it is the place where the craftsmen can freely gallop their talents, and it has become an important type of Chinese architectural art.

The Leaning Tower of Pisa (Italian: Torre Pendente di Pisa or Torre di Pisa) is a freestanding bell tower of the Cathedral of the City of Pisa, Italy, located in Piazza Miracle in the north of Pisa, in the province of Tuscany, Italy. The large lawns of the square are dotted with a group of religious buildings: the Cathedral (built in 1063-13th century), the Baptistery (built in 1153-14th century), the bell tower (the Leaning Tower of Pisa) and the cemetery (built in 1174), all of which are clad in cream-white marble.

The Leaning Tower of Pisa is located behind the Cathedral of Pisa.

The question of the tilt of the bell tower has fascinated curious tourists, artists and scholars for centuries, making the Leaning Tower of Pisa world-famous. Why the Leaning Tower of Pisa leans is why it leans has been debated by experts. Especially in the 14th century, there were two theories as to whether the Leaning Tower of Pisa was the result of the cumulative effect of unforeseen and unavoidable subsidence during its construction, or whether it was intentional on the part of the architects.

In the 20th century, with the increasingly precise measurement of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, the in-depth survey of the soil layers of the foundation using various advanced equipment, and the study of historical archives, some facts gradually emerged: the Leaning Tower of Pisa was originally designed to be vertical, but it began to deviate from the correct position in the early stages of construction.

The Leaning Tower of Pisa, located in the small town of Pisa in Italy, is an ancient tower made of white marble. The tower tilted but did not fall, making the Leaning Tower of Pisa famous. The Leaning Tower of Pisa, built in 1173 and 79 feet high, has tilted many times since its completion, allowing ordinary people to see it with just the eye.

The Italian scientist Galileo Galilei once experimented on the free fall motion on the top floor of the Leaning Tower, which ushered in a new era of experimental physics, and the Leaning Tower became more famous. Italy** has tried its best to stop the continuation of the Guta, but so far it has not succeeded. Near the Leaning Tower of Pisa there is a church for the faithful to enter and worship.

The bell tower was built in 1173 and was designed to be built vertically, but soon after the construction began (1178), it was inclined due to the uneven foundation and soft soil, and was completed in 1372 with the tower tilting to the southeast. The Leaning Tower of Pisa is the symbol of the city of Pisa, and in 1987 it was declared a World Heritage Site by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization for its influence on Italian architecture from the 11th to the 14th centuries, along with the adjacent cathedral, baptistery and cemetery. The Leaning Tower of Pisa is 55 meters high from the ground to the top of the tower, the width of the bell tower wall on the ground is meters, the width at the top of the tower is meters, the total weight is about 14,453 tons, and the center of gravity is meters above the foundation.

The circular foundation has an area of 285 square meters and an average pressure on the ground of 497 kPa. The inclination is about 10%, that is, degrees, deviating from the outer edge of the foundation in meters, and the top layer protrudes in meters.

So, why is the Leaning Tower of Pisa leaning? This is because during construction, the engineers did not take into account the geological conditions of the city of Pisa. The city of Pisa is located in an Italian river valley with a large amount of sand and soft soil.

At the time of the construction of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, the engineers only put a layer of stone on the base of the tower, without taking into account the soil layer underground. Because the tower is too heavy and the soil underground is not strong enough, the tower gradually tilts to the side of the friend.

The Leaning Tower of Pisa, located in Piazza Duomo in the heart of Pisa, Italy, is a sloping bell tower. It is inclined to about 4 degrees, about 56 meters high, the diameter of the tower is about meters, and the highest point of the top of the tower from the ground is about meters. The Leaning Tower of Pisa is one of the most famous buildings in Italy and one of the most famous in the world.

Its uniqueness lies in its inclination, which is also what people are most interested in.

To stabilize the tilt of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, scientists and engineers have taken a variety of measures. First, they dug up a part of the soil under the foundation of the tower to reduce the load of the tower on the underground soil. Secondly, they installed some weight discs at the foot of the tower to increase the weight of the tower, so that it compresses the subsoil downward.

In addition, they thickened some bricks on one side of the tower to balance the weight distribution of the tower.

The Leaning Tower of Pisa, located in Piazza Duomo in the heart of Pisa, Italy, is a sloping bell tower. It is inclined to about 4 degrees, about 56 meters high, the diameter of the tower is about meters, and the highest point of the top of the tower from the ground is about meters. The Leaning Tower of Pisa is one of the most famous buildings in Italy and one of the most famous in the world.

Its uniqueness lies in its inclination, which is also what people are most interested in.

Today, the Leaning Tower of Pisa has become one of the important tourist attractions in Italy. Millions of visitors come to see the Leaning Tower every year. Although the Leaning Tower of Pisa is still tilting, it has now been stabilized and will not continue to tilt.

The architectural mystery of the Leaning Tower of Pisa has also become the object of people's research, and its uniqueness also allows people to have a deeper understanding of the history and technical level of the building.

The Leaning Tower of Pisa, built between 1173 and 1372, is one of the most iconic buildings of the Italian Renaissance. It was originally built for the bell tower of the Cathedral of Pisa, but due to design errors during construction, the tower gradually tilted. In the following centuries, several attempts were made to restore the tilted excavations of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, but they all failed.

It wasn't until the beginning of the 20th century that scientists and engineers found a way to stabilize the tilt of the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
