Chapter LXIX deals with the defects of the limbs. It is laid down that no part of a building should be larger or smaller than what is prescribed. The evil consequences of a defective construction threaten the king, the kingdom, the master, and the maker. The penalties for defective construction are enumerated with reference to architectural objects, but nothing is specifically stated regarding the sculptural objects.
