    Default verb tense

    Are my centences correct?

    To create large interior spaces, Romans used arch structures which eliminate the need for columns. Arch structures enable Romans to spand spaces while supporting weight.
     

    Thank you for your responce.

    A better thread title would have been To create large interior spaces. . .

    You could also use "span" instead of "expand". That's the word I would use in the context.
