The Arch: it’s fascinating
What's so fascinating about arches in nature?
Humans in the ancient past had to rely on arches a lot; they have used arches on their impressive landmarks, buildings, and their bridges that connected them to other civilizations.
Let's go on a broad journey extended thousands of years, traveling thousands of miles across multiple continents, from the far east of China to the far west of Italy; we see how profusely all cultures have used the arch. But why? why the arch specifically?
When we go on a hike to go back to nature to seek peaceful and quiet time, we could notice that a natural arch was polished perfectly created by the incredible natural system God created. The middle part has been removed through time to create a stunning-looking arch. created by a single force, a gentle breeze peacefully hitting the rock over and over thousands of centuries just to reveal a symbol of efficiency in load distribution. An arch.
As it turned out by experiments and observations that the arch is very efficient in load distribution. It can transfer the loads acting on it through its shape in the most efficient way with the same volume of material amongst all shapes.
That's why arches are so fascinating. The arch is a pure symbol of efficiency sent by god to us.
A revolutionary solution elevated architecture.
There is always a new chance, new invention, new hope.
