Is anyone aware of some good material regarding the physical features of a dungeon? For example, what are the options for wall materials? I can think of -
What sort of stone and brick make sense? And what other options are there? When is one preferred over the other? Same questions for floors?
A lot of dungeons seem to be cut through rock - what are the practicalities of that? I imagine there are some rocks that are easier to cut through than others, and there are some that are just not feasible to cut through. Which is which?
I imagine someone has done all of this work and published it in a sourcebook somewhere, but I'm struggling to find something relevant. Please let me know if you are aware of anything that would help answer such questions.

- Dirt reinforced with timber
- Undressed (raw) stone
