There are many similar leaning towers in the world. But this one started up leaninig nearly from the foundation. The tower was built up in the beginnning of 17 century. But the landlord ordered to finish it-he was extremly reach and persistent. Nearly the whole industrial region of Mid Ural with all mines, iron and copper foundries and plants belonged to him. Including this place and the whole tiwn of Nevyansk. In order to continue the constructiin of the tower there was necessary to find out the original engineering solutions for to prevent the tower of collapsing. And these solutions and invetions were found by the ordinary craftmen. We do not know there names. They were just serfs/slaves. But the most known building fastening unit: bolt-washer-nut was for the first time in world used in the tower. The nut and the bolt were with square-like head and not with hexagon head as all modern bolts&nuts. But nontheless.... And all of them still at their place. All of them regularly being checked with modern dyagnostic devices and methods. Safery first! But nothing wrong with the medieval bolts-washers-nuts! The first ever prototype of the reinforced iron or to be exact iron-cast iron was also invented and used there. These bars still hold together the whole tower. And againg... safety first... the laboratories regularly check the bars... the labs confess that they’ll serve for another couple of hundred centuries! Facinating constructiin!!!
