Resumo

The interest in the recovery and maintenance of historical heritage requires mastery of the structural
behavior of old buildings. The historical curiosity of contemporary scholars in the builders of the past, and in the
construction methods adopted in Antiquity, has led to the development of knowledge, tools and innovative
theoretical approaches, which allow the understanding of monumental works of architectural and historical
interest, which has resisted time, as is the case with the Roman Pantheon. To understand how these monuments
were built, how they behave and how the creative genius of their engineers and architects were used, comparative
studies of methods from the past with more recent methods, aim to shed light on the understanding of this "art of
construction".
Thus, in this work, mathematical models based on modern engineering theories, supported by advanced
computational apparatus, are used to analyze in a simplified way the dome of the Roman Pantheon. A progressive
analytical methodology through the Membrane Theory of spherical shells, and the Finite Element Method via SAP
software are used to model the problem and compare the results, as well as its confrontation with previous studies
of the literature also carried out with similar purposes.
