This quantity is devoted to "Mechanics in Architecture", that's, the technological know-how of structural mechanics, together with the behaviour of buildings, inner forces, and deformation, in addition to the advance of latest structural platforms to withstand thrusts because of new architectural types. it's a box of enquiry that examines a specific point of the relationships among structure and the mathematical sciences. a few of the papers during this factor have been provided on the Nexus 2006 convention in the course of a unique consultation devoted to mechanics. different learn papers specialise in an eighteenth-century Belgian pyramid, features of "fractal" structure, and houses of a kinfolk of irrational values. the problem additionally features a description and assessment of a university-level path in structure and arithmetic, Rachel Fletcher's Geometer's attitude column, and publication reviews.

The problem is to draw a surbased arch of a certain height and span by stretching the semicircle of the same height. The method consists in first inscribing the semicircle in a rectangle of ratio 1:2; next, the base of the rectangle (the diameter of the semicircle) is divided in twelve parts and vertical lines are drawn. Another rectangle of the same height and of the desired length is drawn and the base is divided in the same number of parts; again, vertical lines are drawn. The intersection of these lines with the horizontal lines from the intersection of the semicircle with the vertical lines in the first rectangle will give points of the desired arch.
However, the oval form is the natural form for laying out the stands of the amphitheatre: it is impossible to construct parallel ellipses, and the only logical method is to use oval forms made of circular arcs. In any case, the differences between ellipses and ovals for the usual proportions are so small that, in fact, one see what one wants to see. Even the most precise mensuration does not serve to settle the matter [Rosin 2005]. It is not a matter of mensuration, but of the history of building traditions.
A: 6) The vault of equal resistance with vertical joints under its own weight Another special application of the general theory concerns the search for the line of thrust of a vault of equal resistance with vertical joints, subject to its own weight. This case requires that the Stützlinie of case 3 fulfills the two requirements of case 2. By taking the origin of the axes at the middle point of the crown joint, for x 0 it must be y 0 , P 0 , H Q . From the equations (16), (18) and (19) it results (39) V dy H dx (40) V 0 x ³ G dx x0 (41) H Q N , G kN kQ so that (42) Fig.
