c8.t38.3

**13.6-13.13.** *Construction of gārhapatya vedi.* The *gārhapatya vedi* has two forms, e.g. square and circular, each covering an area of either one square *vyāyāma* or one square *puruṣa*. The fire-altar always contains 21 bricks in each layer. Mānava has given almost correct solution to each case.
