Free-standing arch in the form of an inverted catenary, a curve that has the unique property of having no bending moments present anywhere along the curve when loaded by gravity - thus the arch can be self-standing without being extremely massive (think of the Arc de Triomphe).

Why today: N,E,W,S - and ^UP^ - there is no Limit to our expansion nor need we confine the glorious crusade to just Our indigenous folk. Can India-Indians be far behind? Especially with a modern Hannibal at the helm, with his own personal Iago. Ashton some days I be so Proud of bein part of the Master Race at Full Throttle
