/diy/ - Do It Yourself

>>1754729
OP here, I specifically am asking about brick construction that does NOT feature concrete or steel. Imagine you were building 3000 years ago.
I know such were made in Mesopotamia, Egypt, etc, HUGE constructions in the flat desert where earthquakes are rare. I wanted to know how reasonable it is to build something large, like a school or library, in that method, and expect it to exist for more than 1 human life worth of time.
