The theory behind ARCHIE-M is deceptively simple. It is, in general, easy to understand, and therefore reliable. Users will quickly come to understand the response of arches and the reasons for that response. They will also develop a "feel" for the significance of various parts of the makeup of the arch.

Readers are encouraged to read the section on equilibrium first, and then to explore the remainder of this section at their leisure as items rise to prominence in their minds.
