I guess you mean the Roman aqueducts. Aqueducts (water conduits) are still used today. The Roman aqueducts are still talked about because they were marvels of ancient Roman engineering and ruins of their amazing bridgework are still standing in various parts of Europe, Western Asia and North Africa.

How did the Romans preserve building materials when building aqueducts?

The Romans were great engineers and invented cement. The cement that they used was water proof so they could use it underwater and in fountains or aqueducts. The engineering of the aqueducts included cisterns and tunnels through and in mountains or rock. Many of these still exist. some of the aqueducts outside Rome are still standing and the aqueducts of Merida and Segovia are well preserved. One of the aqueducts of Rome, the Aqua Virgo is still working. Much of the Roman building materials have lasted through time but much has been destroyed by the ravages of war, theft the use of materials for rebuilding after the fall of the Roman Empire.

Should you still use aqueducts?

We do still use aqueducts. An aqueduct is nothing more than a water pipe. We get our water to our homes by water pipes, so in effect we are still using them. If you are meaning the ancient Roman aqueducts, some of them or parts of them are still in use today for irrigation and industrial purposes. There are still working aqueducts serving the city of Rome itself.We do still use aqueducts. An aqueduct is nothing more than a water pipe.
