Abstract

 The history of structural engineering dates back to at least 2700 BC when the step pyramid for Pharaoh Djoser was built by Imhotep, the first engineer in history known by name. Pyramids were the most common major structures built by ancient civilizations because the structural form of a pyramid is inherently stable and can be almost infinitely scaled. Historic stone monuments in Parthia, Greek and Roman Empires confirm the existence of structural knowledge since 2000 to 500 BC, although the lack of written evidence makes it difficult to be sure of the design process in detail. Throughout ancient and medieval history most architectural design and construction was carried out by artisans. No theory of structures existed, and understanding of how structures stood up was extremely limited, and based almost entirely on empirical evidence of 'what had worked before'. Knowledge was retained by guilds and seldom supplanted by advances. Structures were repetitive, and increases in scale were incremental. No record exists of the first calculations of the strength of structural members or the behavior of structural material.
