The !physics of pyramid building (every block weighted 2.5 metric tons)
The table is for average workers, but how many dramatards would be required? (An average worker can pull 150N)

Pyramid workers were paid skilled laborers and not Jewish slaves, and The pharaohs even paid the best engineers !engineering of the time to survey land and attempt designs, and They fricked up a few times and settled on a design, and They got gud

god darn that video was like entirely fluff
tldw: the theory is that they used normal ramps to build the bottom portion of the pyramid, but a series of internal ramps/channels to carry stone blocks up to the upper courses.

A third of the video was an Assassin's Creed ad
You may enjoy Practical engineering more
He's a civil engineer so his channel mostly focuses on infrastructure but occasionally he enters explores topics.

I'm site/utilities not a structural.
Most of my work is grading design and stormwater drainage

Yes, but weren't you guys taught about general foundation types on college? Or paid a visit to some construction site where they were being laid?
The first pic is called "estaca escavada". The prefabs are called "estacas pre-moldadas".

The basic
physics 
behind 
it in geotech and reinforced concrete 
design courses, but nothing on manufacturing. We don't really 
use much besides slabs here because it's all bedrock here and where 
I went to college. I also didn't take any bridge 
or structural courses for my electives where 
they may go in depth on it.
Nope all bedrock here too expensive for anything
to be profitable. I work subdivisions so the slab is cheapest so developers use them. Might see it with bridges/skyscrapers but I don't design them

Oh, makes sense
Structural and bridges are pure pain
I struggled with those
I have to check my textbook to make sense of it and it's still hard because they're so many formulas and I'm forgetting most of them.
CA 25, 50 and 60 are steel standards in Brazil for reinforcement.

I avoided structural like a plague
for that reason. If I wanted hard math 24/7 I'd be a mechanical

I eventually grew to hate Samuel after I heard him having s*x with my sister. I arrived at the house one day, my mother being at work, and heard the sounds of Samuel plunging his peepee into my sister's vagina through her closed room door, along with my sister's moans. I stood there and listened to it all. So my sister, who was four years younger than me, managed to lose her virginity before I did. It reminded me of how pathetic I was, that at the age of twenty-two, I was still a virgin. I hated her boyfriend as well. My sister said that he's been with other girls before her, and I'm sure he lost his virginity at a much younger age. It is such an injustice. The slob doesn't even have a car, and he is able to get girlfriends, while I drive a BMW and get no attention from any girls whatsoever.
