    1. (Geom.) Any part of a curved line.
       [1913 Webster]
 
    2. (Arch.)
       (a) Usually a curved member made up of separate
           wedge-shaped solids, with the joints between them
           disposed in the direction of the radii of the curve;
           used to support the wall or other weight above an
           opening. In this sense arches are segmental, round (i.
           e., semicircular), or pointed.
       (b) A flat arch is a member constructed of stones cut into
           wedges or other shapes so as to support each other
           without rising in a curve.
           [1913 Webster]
 
    Note: Scientifically considered, the arch is a means of
          spanning an opening by resolving vertical pressure into
          horizontal or diagonal thrust.
