Abstract:

Through a process of forensic analysis that applied modern-day technology to bridge the chasm of time, a team of construction managers with the international architecture/engineering/construction management firm of Daniel, Mann, Johnson & Mendenhall discovered some surprising answers to the question of how the Great Pyramid at Giza was built. Working closely with leading Egyptologists in both Egypt and the United states�most notably Mark Lehner of the Harvard Semitic Museum�the project team developed a number of interesting insights into centuries-old mysteries concerning the size of the work force, the duration of construction, and the design of the construction ramp.
