:Q

There must be some kind of adhesive to keep the structure intact

i cannot imagine it can be done with it

 

[screw3d]

Awesome!! :Q

 

[MrCodeDude]

Impossible.

 

[amol]

[PHiuR]

wonder if its possible...without any thing helping them stick together.

 

[LtPage1]

[screw3d]

It should be possible without adhesives.. keystone arches anyone?

 

[saltedeggman]

we need a poll....!!!


but we will never have the answer unless someone actually try to do it

Of course it's possible, it's how the ancient folk built. If they are wedge shaped at all then it disperses the weight correctly.
This arch has no mortar or adhesive.
Better pic.

Yeah, they probably had to use an intermediate structure too.

I doubt there is enough pressure to force them out. Gravity (their own weight) is pulling them down.
