“…Gilbert 6 examined masonry arch bridges by means of numerical models using advances in “force lines,” “rigid block” discretization and combined ground‐arch interaction models. Carbonell et al 7 studied the design of a reinforced concrete vault and analyzed different solutions regarding its geometric design and arrangement of the reinforcements with the help of algorithms to obtain the economic optimization. García Sanz et al 8 compared, from a sustainability perspective, the environmental impact of a horizontal masonry structure using an edge vault, with respect to a reinforced concrete waffle slab, using techniques based on life cycle analysis to quantify the energy consumed in the process of manufacturing the materials and the construction of the structure.…”

This research shows the results of an experimental campaign of masonry specimens tested until failure. The masonry is made of special voussoirs for the construction of arches and vaults. The voussoirs were made of plain concrete. The experimental campaign focused on obtaining the flexural and the compressive strength of this type of masonry specimens. Specimens were subjected to compressive loads with different eccentricities to obtain the axial load–bending moment interaction diagrams, which indicate the strength of these pieces against eccentric compression. The ultimate purpose of this research is to foresee the behavior of structural elements, such as arches and lowered vaults with a circular directrix, built using this type of voussoirs. These structural elements aim to reintroduce anti‐funicular structural elements in bridges, culvert, tunnel, floor, and roof of buildings. Constructions that solve the basic needs of the population in any country. This innovative idea on a new block geometry, designed specifically for construction of arches, allows covering distances up to 6–7 m. The use of steel is not necessary; therefore, the risk of corrosion is eliminated. Finally, a study on the use of this new masonry type on the statics of arches is assessed.
