The greatness of Roman architecture is built‚ quite literally‚ upon the foundation of two important items: the discovery of concrete and the adoption of the arch from the Greeks.

Roman was known for their architectural accomplishments. Works like the Colosseum‚ the Aqueducts‚ the Pantheon were a few among many of their notable magnificent. The two innovations enabled Rome to attain those achievements were the invention of concrete and arches. In this paper‚ I attempt to look into their origins‚ their effect on Roman’s life and what was the most notable works result from these inventions. Concrete was considered one of the most innovative invention in architecture. It enabled

Beam bridges are horizontal beams supported at each end by piers. Weight on top of the beam pushes straight down on the piers. Cantilever bridges are bridges that are built using horizontal beams that are only supported on one end. Arch bridges are arch-shaped and have abutments at each end. The weight of the bridge is pushed into the abutments
