Abstract EN

Researchers often referred to the study of roman architecture, and creativity in construction, and sometimes even stunned, due to tight system, she has been a witness to the development of structural engineering.

the bathrooms are part of this architecture and contained an integrated heating system, which was termed `` hypocauste'', this last one based on the principle of thermodynamics from several sides, a feature that makes bathrooms a place where the display corresponds to the body's need for the diversity of water temperatures and even the space occupied by the different rooms., lacunicum, caldarium, tepidarium and frigidarium, this variety allows the individual to move along a healthy path.

parts of this system, especially the floor mounted over brick columns(pillets), may be similar to other buildings far from febrile ones such as grain and grain stores, but the bathrooms are unique as an integral component with its basic elements (floor mounted over columns, wall hollows for hot air movement, heat source fireplace, and water as the basis of the system as a whole).
