Arches The Romans used arches to support the things they built. They built victory arches, buildings and aqueducts.

Aqueducts

Aqueducts- a way to carry water There wasn’t enough water in the city of Rome. The Romans brought water in from the surrounding countryside. The water was brought in by tubes called aqueducts.

How did the aqueduct work? The water flowed in a tube on the top of the aqueduct called a water channel. The arches supported the water channel.

What did the water channel look like? The water flowed through a rectangular channel. The channel was lined with concrete. The Romans invented concrete.

Where else did the Romans use arches? Arches of Triumph Buildings Roofs

Arches of Triumph- to celebrate military success

The Coliseum- a place for sports

The Coliseum- a blend of Greek and Roman architecture The arches are supported by central columns. The columns on the first floor are Doric. The columns on the second floor are Ionic. The columns on the third floor are Corinthian.

The Pantheon- a temple to all the gods

How does an arch work? Keystones The keystone is the red stone at the top of the arch. The keystone is what the weight rests on.

How does an arch work? Voussoirs The semi-circular stones on either side of the keystone are the voussoirs. The voussoirs bring the weight to the columns that go to the ground.
