To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But the most important result of all was this : that instead of the continuous thrust of the old barrel roof along the whole length of the wall the thrust was now broken up, and concentrated on certain isolated points, spaced at regular intervals, which alone it was necessary to fortify. When two equal arches meet in the same plane they neutralise their respective thrusts and convert it into a direct downward pressure. This is what happens to the side arches F F F in the vault shown in Fig. 32,... which bring a dead load on the piers A B C D from which they spring. The same points receive the thrusts of the transverse arches E E and the diagonal groins G G. The pier A therefore receives the five thrusts, CH. V CONCENTRATED THRUSTS 117 one direct, two oblique and two lateral, of all that part of the vault, and the resultant thrust of all these combined would obviously be in the direction H. The same thing • l&i / \ . / !: \ / :• V p.
