History of Cupolas
The cupola in architecture is widespread; it has a history which many architectural features just cannot match. The early history of the cupola is a virtual pseudo tower. It served many purposes, from a covered light source to, ventilation, and style. It started back to the 8th century when the cupola was no more than to cover a minaret. These evolved and became the inspiration for the dome. They were no more than ornamental but represented massive achievements in architectural design and statement of proof of cultural superiority. Many cultures have historically used architecture as a status symbol and the cupolas provide some genuine states. The West took up the challenge and the Christian churches were soon building their own angular cupolas. By the Renaissance, major cities in Europe and the Islamic world were awash with magnificent buildings. The cupola turned architecture into a truly complex artistic medium.

Cupolas have to be well integrated into the building. Load stresses for big cupolas are not trivial things, and movement of a big heavy cupola is an engineering matter. BA Roofing & Greenbuilding Construction has the complete team to engineer the structural strength the roof.
