minus-squareMr. Satan@monyet.cclinkfedilinkarrow-up0·10 months agoWould concrete even hold. I mean lava is molten rock and cement is kind of a rock. So wouldn’t the cement melt before pressure could build up?
minus-squarestarman2112@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up0·10 months agoMost cements melt at a higher temperature than most lava gets to, so it would be solid chunks of cement getting blasted miles out when the pressure builds high enough to erupt
