What is the "rise"?

In architecture, the rise refers to the vertical distance from the springing point of an arch or vault to its highest point, which is often the apex or crown. This measurement is important in determining the shape and overall appearance of the arch. A greater rise typically results in a steeper and more pronounced curve, while a smaller rise creates a flatter arch. The rise is a key factor in both the structural integrity and aesthetic quality of an arch, influencing how it interacts with the surrounding space and other architectural elements.
