Heron’s Legacy: An Example of Ancient Calculations Applied to Roman Imperial Architecture
https://orcid.org/http://orcid.org/0000-0003-4520-5045
Heron of Alexandria is a well-known author in the field of mathematics and engineering, but his work is of great interest for understanding ancient construction problems related to architecture. The formulas translated and commented on by Heiberg (1914a, b) are analyzed through geometric diagrams and applied to famous Roman domed architecture.
