Which constraint was most amplified during construction of Sacsayhuamán using stone?

💡 Explanation

Stress concentration was amplified because the dry-stone construction relies on precise fitting of irregular stones, and any misalignment increases **stress concentration**. Therefore, ensuring minimal gaps was paramount, rather than issues related to thermal expansion concrete setting, or aggregate surfaces that weren't factors in the mortarless construction.
