At this time, industry, commerce, and agriculture were at their peak. Roman engineering was applied to an ambitious system of public-works projects, not just in Italy but in the outlying areas as well. The Pont du Gard functioned as an aqueduct, a structure meant to trans- port water, and its lower level served as a footbridge across the river. That it stands today virtually intact after nearly two thousand years (and is crossed by cyclists on the route of the famous Tour de France bicycle race) testifies to the Romans’ brilliant engineering skills. Visually, the Pont du Gard exemplifies the best qualities of arch construction. Solid and heavy, obviously durable, it is shot through with open spaces that make it seem light and its weight-bearing capabilities effortless.
在基于拱形结构的罗马建筑中，最优雅最稳固持久的当属法国尼姆的加德桥，它大约是在公元前15世纪，当帝国的扩张几乎达到巅峰的时候被建造的。那时，工业，商业和农业都处于鼎盛时期。不仅仅是在意大利，在其它偏远地区，罗马建筑工程都被应用于建造宏大的公共工程项目系统。加德桥的结构是一座高架渠，高架渠是一种能够让水流通过的结构，它较低的桥面部分是横跨河流的人行桥。加德桥在将近2个世纪后的今天，几乎依然保持完好无损（并且在著名的环法自行车赛的路线上，很多自行车手都曾从桥上骑过），这也证明了罗马人卓越的建筑技巧。在视觉上，加德桥是最高质量的拱形结构的典型代表。稳固、沉重，经久耐用，它的镂空设计使它看上去很轻，且承重能力游刃有余。
