The Germ of the Prinzipalbogen Concept in Bartel Ranisch
Abstract The Prinzipalbogen concept, as it has been described in nineteenth century technical literature, seems to be a fundamental tool in the design of Gothic vaults in the Central European area. We will analyze Bartel Ranisch’s contribution to this concept by his text Beschreibung aller Kirchengebäude der Stadt Dantzig (1695), focused on the description of the geometrical procedure employed in the design of the arches of Gothic vaults with means of a common arch that he calls Haupt-Bogen or Quadrant. We have developed a complete study of Ranisch’s descriptions of all vaults, what, despite the frequent references to this text, especially by German authors during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, had never been carried out before. In this paper we will show some conclusions about the geometrical procedures described by Ranisch and its interpretation during construction history.
