Cross Vault with sails
The cross vault with sails takes on a three-dimensional shape compared to the cross vault while maintaining the diagonals that are not visible in the classic sail vault. It is an intermediate solution between the cross vault and the cloister vault.
-
Cloister vault
It is formed by crossing 2 barrel vaults without outer arches. The curves are tangent to the walls of the room and are designed and adapted to the sizes of the base and the rise.
-
Barrel valut
It is generally semi-cylindrical but can also be made with any other type of curve. In case of a round curve, the inside of the formwork is hollow to enable removal and reuse.
