One thing leads to another. Post-tensioning of discrete elements became an obsession in the conception as well as in the rationale of structure and execution. The fact that a piece could more easily be carved out of a single stone than out of several was of no importance compared to the validity that the division of parts into components and their assembly into a form to explain their derivation had.
