An image showing the Flash animation logo is a link to a Flash animation.

Flash animations are embedded into the pages of all my D&T Modules but there are pictorial links to the animations on this web site so that devices that cannot play Flash animations will at least show a jpeg screenshot of the animation.

If your PC or personal digital assistant (PDA) can play Flash animations you may click on an image showing the Flash animation logo to view the animation in a new window.

Everything that is made from resistant materials has some form of structure.

Stone structures consist of shaped stones laid in layers, one on top of the other. The stones are laid so that the one overlaps the two beneath it. This arrangement helps to hold the structure together. The stones may have mortar in between them or they may be laid "dry".
