English term or phrase: the roofline and drum
"As the Kievan period progressed the exterior of buildings, previously almost unadorned, tended to be treated more delicately, with, for example, patterned brickwork or pilaster strips. The roofline and drum took on a pyramidal silhouette".

Bom, volto com o mesmo texto, pois não tinha me tocado que não consigo traduzir o termo "drum" aqui. Roofline acho que é telhado mesmo. Obrigado pela ajuda nas questões anteriores.

Tambor e perfil do telhado
Explanation:
Architecture.
A circular or polygonal wall supporting a dome or cupola. Also called tambour.
Any of the cylindrical stone blocks that are stacked to form the shaft of a column

Da definição acima e do site em português abaixo (acho que vai ser útil pra você), a tradução é tambor mesmo. Tem a foto no site também.

Roofline acho que fica melhor como perfil do telhado.


Boa sorte
