It's been standing there for a 1oo years and the main pillars probably 2oo and were used before somewhere else...perhaps in a building standing in the same place xD Were not going to demolish it of course~ Dissasemble, and use the wood that hasn't turned into dust again to make a new smaller one ^w^
Uh seems like me...my mum said that when I was a kid I drew something and hated it and then didn't even try to draw again for a long time becouse I thought It would just be bad again...but recently I'm beccoming better I think xD I may have something after my sis after all she's good in drawing~
Ya this is a traditional building xD Built by traditional principals http://s2.bolha.si/3/image/61046/63.....d1f7db0bec.jpg Like the the corner wood makes triangles in corners and that is the most stable shape of all :P
Well our house was mostly built by my father, my grandfather and occasionaly by a big task the whole family and many friends. True at the interior and exterior facade only there we hired a couple of workers from Albania but I think we payed them well and I think they did a good job too. My father said that he would like at least one job done by professionals xD
Sounds like you're house will stand for 500 years. Meanwhile, most things in the U.S. will fall down after 10.
Things aren't all too bad though. The house I live in now was built in 1867, and many buildings in the historic section of town were built either in the 1700s or the 1800s...this was of course back when people built things to last, and skilled workers put them together. My house alone will probably stand until 2267. XD The old churches and taverns will likely stand until someone deliberately takes them down.

Old houss stand for a long time~ If theyer taken care of properly that is. By us there are not as many old houses for one reason- compare to the socialist ones and today's, they were very small. Like two times smaller or more. That's all...many old houses from wealthier families who had bigger houses are still standing tho~
Well if I remember the pic you showed me, your house is about two times larger than the avarage Slovenian pre war house xD Tho your is built from wood right? In Slovenia that was very uncommon...exept the Panonia houses maybe, they looked like this http://www.o-cerkvenjak.mb.edus.si/Hisa.jpg Theese houses were built from arround the 16oo's to probably...well they weren't built after world war two anymore that's for sure. But my grandpa for instance was born in a house like this http://www.kozjanska-domacija.si/Sl.....a_nova_big.jpg It's gone today it's been demolished becouse it was falling appart. But a new modern one was built in it's place and a part of my family still lives there ^^
Two times bigger? Damn. That's really saying something, given how small my house actually is. XD
And yes, it is built from wood.
Ah...interesting designs to say the very least, especially the second one. =3 And even though the original may be gone, at least there's another one, that your family still lives in, right? =3

http://www.rtvslo.si/_up/photos/200.....a_blogshow.jpg Something like this but this one is older...couldn't find the pics of what I wanted to show you D: I'll take some myself if I see one like that kay? Anyway in most of theese houses I showed you you probably noticed none of them are very big. By the Panonia house the living quaters to the right might have been built later and an extencion to the house to the right in general, so the barn was mooved to the right and the house expanded...In the seccond house you see the house it's self where the people live and not the barn is even a little smaller...either way admit it would be hard to live in thoose with two parents and 9 children-11people...agreed? Agreed XD In summer the younger children slept in the house where there was rom like on the table or on the bench (ussualy there was one very long bench not so many stools) and the older children like 12 or more we're old enough to sleep in the barn. Acctualy it was probably more comfortable too. In winter it was more of a problem. In winter everybody was realy squished together since you DON'T want to sleep outside in winter. Ussualy the lucky ones could sleep on the ceramic furnace and the rest next to it xD Oh yeah and mum and dad got a real bed lol. Buuut, after world war two people were sick of living like this...so the socislist goverment hade I dunno at least 5 plans for houses that were totaly radical to what we had before. They were like a total square with a roof two or three stories high. And they were big enough and also meant to be for two families. So for parents and tehyre children when they grow up =P. In the old days by the time the children grew up the parents were in theyre 5o's and 6o's and that was about it nobody lived much longer soo ussualy the children just took over the house with theyre families >< Or one did and the others mooved away. Anyway theese socialist houses still are arround 8o% of all the houses by us. I dunno some have been repainted with flashy colours and stuff but some are still the same or haven't changed much xD My grandparents here in Škofja vas live in one like that too and untill we got this house we planned to live by them.
Ah, I see. =3
Heh. Well, it would be hard to live in just about any house with 9 children and 11 or so people in all. XD
Hmm. Sleeping in the barn in the summer, and on top the furnace in the winter...quite a concept to say the least. I'd have to say though, at least you wouldn't be cold if you were on the furnace. =3 XD
Two or three story houses that two families could live in huh? Doesn't sound like too bad a plan, at least in theory. If they were at least a bit bigger, they shouldn't be too bad at all to live in.

No of course not it's a good thing many families still live like that. More problems occur if children leave that house and old parents then have to clean the big house themselves...http://www.klopcic.si/...../moja-hisa.jpg This is one model of the house for instance. You see it has two floors?
Now it's just a rectangle owo Everything that was the roof or supporting it is gone haha. But now to much sadder news T.T Unfortunatly, the wood was even worse than we predictied...so...we probably won't be able to build a new wooden barn T_T We still have the right-after-war brick barn but...well I just likedt his one very much it had more room...so I am very sad
That's due to sand being blown up around their base, not because they're crumbling.
You know how the pyramids all look rough, like parts have eroded off? That's not erosion, that's actually man made. Originally the pyramids were all cased with an outer layer of limestone, giving it a nice, smooth finish. When the Egyptian Empire collapsed, the empires that claimed Egypt for their own sent crews out to the pyramids and stripped away the limestone for their own uses. Had the limestone not been stripped away by man, the pyramids would still basically be smooth. If you look near the cap stones of the pyramids, especially the Great Pyramid at Giza, you can see some of the limestone that was left intact.

Well sure if you can make it yourself or have the money to buy as a poor farmer XD The wood was mostly chopped and processed by them from the local forest or like I said before the main pillars might have been used somewhere before. The foor shindles might have originaly been hay and not clay but theyre probably from nearby Ljubečna.
You mean like Oak? This wood lasted long becouse it was the CORE of the Oak and becouse it was naturaly cut with axes according to the curves of the wod :P Saw doesen't do this you know. No wonder cut wood doesen't last half as long. You can coat it in protective paint but in the end it won't last forever...axe cut wood comes close XD
