Abstract


Stereotomy one of the most amazing techniques in the field of construction, reaches its peak in the Spanish Reanaissance. This article briefly sets out some of the basic rules which bring us closer to an interpretation of the art of stonemasonry such as it was known in the XVI Century. When dealing with the Spanish Renaissance, it is advisable to draw attention to, first of all, two points of great interest: — construction at that time, and — the treatises on the art of stonemasonry through the centuries.
