This paper discusses the construction method for the tunnel vault in the Roman and Romanesuque architecture based on the experiments of constructing arch with the simple and temporary framework which can be removed just after all bricks are laid out. This is called the applied method of freehand. And the result of our experiments shows that the Roman type tunnel vault can be constructed by the applied method of freehand.
