The dismantling of a simple chapel of the late XVI century and the study of its formal constitution are the starting point of this analytical study of the structural design criteria. This course will compare the fundamentals of each methodology, from a geometric concept, through the concept of balance and reaching analysis methods based on the elastic stiffness. The precision of FEM software and its visual power cause the forgetfulness of the traditional design parameters. We often forget that the materials and building systems are difficult to evaluate by means of elastic concepts, which makes them statically indeterminate systems of order which change with time. The different analytical methods mean that none of them is exclusive against the others as actually they are complementary. The fact that sometimes the calculation precision of establishing a particular stress state cannot make us forget that the existence of a historic construction which has been able to find a working mechanism, will have had its starting point in a formal design, far from the necessity of accuracy.
