Architecture and the Sciences: Exchanging Metaphors
Considering the history of the exploded perspective of the springing point of the
arch, a drawing the form of which preoccupied Viollet-le- Duc for more than a
decade before it reached its final resolution in 1859, is a good means to better ...

Elementary Practical Building Construction Stage 1
The line joining a front and a rear springing point is a springing line. A ring
course is a curved course as seen on the front or rear ; a string course is a row of
voussoirs extending along the length of the arch and (except in skew arches)
parallel ...

A Manual of Civil Engineering
If the rib rises vertically from its springing-point, as at B, the whole of the
horizontal pressure which sustains it is distributed through the layers of the
spandril. (The term " complete" has lately been introduced to denote such a rib.) If
the arch ...

Manual Drafting for Interiors
Christine Cavataio. 12. To measure the curve or rise of an arch, the horizontal
center of the object or component must first be established. The critical
measurements necessary for drafting are the height of the springing point or
horizontal line ...

Minutes of Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers
The action of the abutments is then represented by a force passing through the
springing-point of the mean curve, namely the reaction, and by a moment. If the
reaction be decomposed into its horizontal and vertical components H and V, ...

Filippo Brunelleschi: The Buildings
Given these fixed dimensions at the top, flexibility was possible only below the
springing point of the portico arches. To complicate the problem even further,
Brunelleschi introduced still another factor into the system. Let us look at the
actual ...
3.5 Roof Truss Supports The roof truss springing point, was the top of the box
girder at level 4. The actual truss connection was facilitated by fixing the two top
chords of the truss to the box section. With the requirement for prefabrication of
the ...

The Architecture of the Kariye Camii in Istanbul
Positioned at the springing point of the facade arches, the string course
dramatically echoes the steps of the responds and the curves of the columns (
Figs. 124, 140). Rarely are string courses used for such dynamic, three-
dimensional effects.

Brickwork, Level 3: For CAA Construction Diploma and NVQs
The angle produced by the line from the striking point, passing through the
springing point to the extrados, is known as the skewback. To ascertain the
number of voussoirs and the position of the joint lines in the axed arch, set the
dividers to 65 ...
