What is Venipedia?Venipedia is a wiki-based website dedicated to the study of the city of Venice, Italy. It is intended as a repository for unique information and data primarily collected by the Venice Project Center at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. With decades of projects dedicated to the study of Venetian architecture, art, bridges, canals, churches, ecosystems, infrastructure, tourism, transportation, and more, we are now releasing our data to the world through this site. There are already many Venetian resources on the internet, including both the English and Italian Wikipedias and various Italian-language sites. While these resources are adequate for some purposes, there are also some problems associated with these sources. For example, Wikipedia is a general-knowledge encyclopedia that provides neither detailed information nor concrete data. This website aims to fill the gap of of an English-language, data-driven website about Venice. Please check back regularly for updates. |

For information on Keystones in general, visit the Decorative Keystones page.A keystone is a wedged shape piece of stone that is placed at the top of the arch to lock, or hold all the other stones in place. The keystone allows the arch to bear weight but experiences the least amount of stress due to its position at the apex[1].  FunctionA keystone is the central "voussoir" (a key or wedge stone) that holds and finishes an arch. It is the last stone to be placed, thus keys the whole arch together, making it strong and increasing its capability to support weight. As the visual center of an arch, a keystone is an integral element in the aesthetic design of a structure and connects the arch with the horizontal moldings that run above ..→ |
