Build Your Own Arches!

Emily Whiting loves her some stone arches. How about you?

You say you don’t have any huge slabs of stone lying around in your backyard?  We buttressed this bad boy! You don’t have the workers you’d need to build a stone arch? Your back hasn’t recovered from all the shoveling you did this winter?

Ha! No more excuses.

Try out this cool NOVA interactive, “Physics of Stone Arches,” and find out just how arch-ilicious you really are.
