To build an arch, you start with two low wall sections of equal height on either side of a gap that's the planned width of the arch. Then, use a wooden form, a half-circle cut in the desired curve of the final arch, as a support. Beginning at the wall edges, build up along the sides with wedge-shaped stones.

Keystone. The keystone is the most vital piece of the stone arch. It's the wedge-shaped piece that is located at the very apex of the arch.
