Answer

Two technological and stylistic developments are noticeable from the twelfth century.
  1. The weight of the superstructure above the doors and windows was sometimes carried by arches. This architectural form was called “arcuate”.
  2. Limestone cement was increasingly used in construction. This was very high-quality cement, which, when mixed with stone chips hardened into concrete. This made construction of large structures easier and faster.
