    The document describes two early reinforced concrete structures that used vaulted designs: an airship hanger built in France in 1915 and the ancient Palace of Ctesiphon from 531 AD. The French hanger had two parabolic vaults that were each 80 meters wide, 300 meters long, and 56 meters tall. The vaults' cross-sections matched the funicular pressure line to evenly distribute loads. The ancient palace in Mesopotamia featured a brick vault over 80 feet wide that also approximated a parabolic shape to minimize bending stresses, representing one of the earliest uses of arched vaults.

    Airship hanger, Orly airport, France

    Engineer: Eugne Freyssinet


    The first of two hangers, build in 1915 was the first
    reinforced concrete vault.
    Each vault spans 80m, is 300m long and 56m high.
    The parabolic cross-section fits the funicular pressure
    line for uniform load distributed horizontally.
    To resist buckling under unbalanced load, the vaults
    Consist of ribs of required depth without great dead load.
    The 6 cm concrete ribs are 7.5 m wide, and vary
    in depth from 5.4 m at the base to 3 m on top.
    Skylights are integrated with the ribs.

    Palace Ctesiphon (531 AD)


    The ancient Palce Ctesiphon (Mesopotamien plain) has a
    brick vault of 80 ft span (about 1/3 of Fryssinets vault).
    The vault cross section approximates the parabolic
    funicular pressure line for minimal bending stress.
