EXPERIMENT
HERE’S HOW
Look at the model you built. Can you find
two arches in the model? Look closely at
the shape of the arches. What shape do
they have?
Push down on the dome. What happens?
Arches and domes
WHAT’S HAPPENING
In this experiment, you can see how a dome is like a combination
of multiple arches. You built a structure with two arches in
different planes. The arches are called concave arches or
reverse ogee arches based on their shape.
These two arches define a three-dimensional space. This is
not a common shape for a dome. You can see why when you
push down on it: The dome bows inward. Ogee arches are
not the strongest arches. The combination of convex and
concave curves makes them rather weak structurally.
They are more often used decoratively in buildings.

Arches are great, but
sometimes you want to
enclose more space
under a roof. Imagine
rotating an arch around
its top point to define a
three-dimensional
space — that’s a dome!
