Four common types of vault. A barrel vault (also called a cradle vault, tunnel vault, or wagon vault) has a semicircular cross section. A groin (or cross) vault is formed by the perpendicular intersection of two barrel vaults. A rib (or ribbed) vault is supported by a series of arched diagonal ribs that divide the vault’s surface into panels. A fan vault is composed of concave sections with ribs spreading out like a fan.

Rib vault | Definition, History, & Architecture

Rib vault, a skeleton of arches or ribs on which masonry can be laid to form a ceiling or roof. Rib vaults were frequently used in medieval buildings, most famously in Gothic cathedrals. The rib vault arose out of efforts to solve the challenges associated with supporting heavy masonry ceiling vaults over wide spans.

Conoid shell

Conoid shell - Designing Buildings - Share your construction industry knowledge. A conoid is a special kind of warped ruled surface which, as a curved shell roof, can be used as an alternative to a barrel vault. The basic principle is that one edge of the shell is curved while the opposite edge is kept straight. In architecture, this is referred to as a ‘right conoid’.
