Signifies interruption of an element, e.g., broken arch (usually segmental with its center filled by a carved motif), broken ashlar (random masonry laid in irregular courses), broken column (with the shaft broken off, symbolizing death, a recurring theme in commemorative art), broken pediment, and broken rangework (masonry laid in courses but with blocks of different heights, thus breaking the horizontal joints). (Curl & Wilson, 2016)
