I-Leaning Tower yePisa ilahlekelwa ukuthambeka kwayo

Inqaba edumileyo yePisa sele iqalile ukubuyela kwisimo sayo esikhoyo

I-Tower of Pisa yaqala ukuthambeka ukususela ekuqaleni kokwakhiwa kwayo ngo-1173 kumhlaba othambileyo, kwaye nangona kwadlula iinkulungwane ezi-8 kunye neenyikima ezi-4 eziqatha, inqaba edumileyo isaqinile kwaye iphakamile.

Iminyaka yokusebenza nzima koononjineli yabangela ukuba le nqaba iyeke ukuthambeka.

“Safakela iqela leityhubhu ezingaphantsi komhlaba kwelinye icala lethambeka, sasusa umhlaba omninzi ngokugrumba ngenyameko saza ngaloo ndlela safumana isiqingatha somlinganiselo wotyekelo.”

Ngowe-1990 abasemagunyeni bayivala le nqaba kangangeminyaka eli-11 emva kokuba ukutyekela kwayo kufikelele kwisi-5,5.

Inqaba, ekuthandeni kwayo okuphezulu, yayiziimitha ezi-4,5 ukusuka kwindawo yayo ethe nkqo.

Ukulungiswa kweenjineli kuphumelele ekulungiseni ithambeka ngeesentimitha ezingama-45 kwisithuba seminyaka engamashumi amathathu.

Inqaba ibuyela kwimo yayo ekhoyo, kwaye ukuthambeka kwayo kuyahluka ehlotyeni ngenxa yokuba inqaba ithandela emazantsi, kwaye ngenxa yesi sizathu icala layo elisezantsi liya litshisa, kwaye ngoko ke amatye enqaba ayanda kwaye inqaba ilula.

Iingcali ziqinisekisa ukuba le nqaba ayinakuze ibuyele kwisimo sayo esikhoyo.
