Pyramid 3d model

cgstudio

A pyramid is a structure whose outer surfaces are triangular and converge at a single point. The base of a pyramid can be trilateral, quadrilateral, or any polygon shape, meaning that a pyramid has at least three triangular surfaces (at least four faces including the base). A square pyramid, with a square base and four triangular outer surfaces, is a common version. The design of a pyramid, with most of its weight closer to the ground, and with the pyramidion on top, means that less material higher up on the pyramid will be pushing down from above. This distribution of weight allowed early civilizations to create stable monumental structures for thousands of years. For centuries, the largest structures on Earth were pyramids – first the Red Pyramid in the Dashur Necropolis and then the Great Pyramid of Khufu, both located in Egypt, with the latter being the only one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World still remaining. The Great Pyramid of Khufu is built entirely of limestone, and it's considered an architectural masterpiece. The largest pyramid by volume is the Great Pyramid of Cholula, situated in the Mexican state of Puebla. Its impressive statistics include 455,628 vertices, 907,520 edges, 453,760 faces, and 907,520 tris. The high-poly 3D model of this pyramid is available for purchase.
