Sažetak


Diocletian's mausoleum is a very sturdy building, built according to the highest standards of Roman construction. Massive stone walls were erected in the opus isodomum technique. However, the builders made a mistake when they used iron cramps to join together individual blocks of stone. A number of these cramps have rusted and damaged the face of the stone walls. The dome was built with bricks laid in an intricate fish-scale pattern, which enabled the construction without centering or heavy scaffolding. The dome was made too high above the top cornice of the facades, the pitch of the roof was too steep and over the centuries the tiles were sliding down. In the thirteenth century, at the time of the great reconstruction of the interior of the Cathedral and at the start of the construction of the bell-tower, the form of the roof was changed. The pitch of the roof was lowered, an attic wall was built above the Roman cornice, and a finnial was put on the top. The roof was then covered with Roman tiles collected from the mausoleum itself and from ruined buildings within Diocletian's palace.
