Answer:

When building a Gothic cathedral, a master builder would include pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and a flying buttress. I think I would have enjoyed being a master builder because it would have been a creative job with lots of opportunities to express my vision through architectural works.

Its characteristics include the pointed arch, the ribbed vault (which evolved from the joint vaulting of romanesque architecture) and the flying buttress. The intersection of two to three barrel vaults produces a rib vault or ribbed vault when they are edged with an armature of piped masonry often carved in decorative patterns.
