The book is a comprehensive guide to the construction of various types of arches, including natural stone, plain-concrete, and reinforced-concrete arches.

It then delves into the different types of arches and their construction methods, providing detailed instructions and diagrams for each type. The author also covers the design and calculation of arches, including the determination of the arch's rise, span, and thickness. He explains the importance of symmetry and balance in arch construction and provides examples of different types of arches in historical and modern architecture.
