Hi. I've been searching for the slope angles of the Roman Pantheon and Greek Parthenon's pediments and have not been able to find the information anywhere. Is there anybody on the forum that can assist me with regards to that information ? or where I could possible find it ?
Kind Regards.

elevation drawings are easily accessible for both buildings.... all you need is a ruler, a calculator, and grade 3 basic math.

Thank you Chad. Yes, I have found various elevation drawings but they do not concur with each other and thus leaves one with the conundrum of which artist was right and which was not.

Then buy yourself a couple plane tickets and go field-measure the real deal! Best homework assignment ever!

Edwin - You have access to a library correct? The building with lots of books in it that you can use as part of your tuition.
Go look there in the architectural history section.
In your 'report' state that you found several online sources showing different drawings of the roof and that you chose to the accepted and respected library source.
This isn't that hard. Good luck finishing school.

I think asking here was an impediment to discovering the answer.
