All buildings must stand. An adequate structure was as necessary
for the simplest primitive hut as it is for the tallest or
widest-spanning modern building. However, this requirement became
more difficult to satisfy as designers became more adventurous and
the experience already gained became less directly applicable. The
present papers look at the consequent evolution of design methods
and the types of understanding that have been essential guides. A
particular focus is the question of how earlier innovations, made
without the benefits of modern theory, were possible. Other papers
look in detail at the most outstanding of these achievements, such
as the church of Hagia Sophia in Istanbul and the dome of Florence
Cathedral.
