Description

This lecture discusses the design and function of flying buttresses in Gothic architecture, focusing on the horizontal components of reactions and the modeling of pointed arches. The instructor explains the adaptation of weight distribution to achieve specific reaction forces and the operation of half-pointed arcs. Various examples, such as the Pont du Gard and Narbonne Cathedral, are used to illustrate these concepts.
