The principal rib and the intermediate rib are linked through little horizontal brick arches. As to the structural role of the horizontal brick arches, there are currently four opinions. 1) They are connecting rings, 2) They are load-transmitting rings, 3) They contributed to the self-support of the outer shell during its construction, and 4) Thgy are for their geometrical rather than their structural properties. From the structural point of view, the horizontal brick arches must have been an appropriate contribution to the self-supporting of the outer shell., 長崎大学工学部研究報告, 22(39), pp.169-186; 1992}, pages = {169--186}, title = {サンタ・マリア・デル・フィオーレ大聖堂のドームのレンガ造水平アーチの構造的役割について}, volume = {22}, year = {1992} }
