Tag: Groin Vault

Category: Structure


A groin vault is a structural form created by the perpendicular intersection of two barrel vaults, producing a series of arched ribs, groins, that channel weight toward the corners. The resulting geometry allows for wider, more open interior spaces and was widely used in Roman, Romanesque and Gothic architecture for halls, aisles and passageways. - AsNotedIn
