Vault (French voûte, from Italian volta) is an architectural term for an arched form used to provide a space with a ceiling or roof. The parts of a vault exert lateral thrust that requires a counter resistance. When vaults are built underground, the ground gives all the resistance required. However, when the vault is built above ground, various replacements are employed to supply the needed resistance. An example is the thicker walls used in the case of barrel or continuous vaults. Buttresses are used to supply resistance when intersecting vaults are employed.
The simplest kind of vault is the barrel vault (also called a wagon or tunnel vault) which is generally semicircular in shape. The barrel vault is a continuous arch, the length being greater than its diameter. As in building an arch, a temporary support is needed while rings of voussoirs are constructed and the rings placed in position. Until the topmost voussoir, the keystone, is positioned, the vault is not self-supporting. Where timber is easily obtained, this temporary support is provided by centering consisting of a framed truss with a semicircular or segmental head, which supports the voussoirs until the ring of the whole arch is completed. With a barrel vault, the centering can then be shifted on to support the next rings.

Recorded on 19 Nov 2013 at PASS Data Warehousing and Business Intelligence Virtual Chapter (PASS DW/BI VC) Data Vault Data Warehouse Architecture Data vault is a compelling architecture for an enterprise data warehouse using SQL Server 2012. A well designed data vault data warehouse facilitates fast, efficient and maintainable data integration across business systems. In this session Leslie and I will review the basics about enterprise data warehouse design, introduce you to the data vault architecture and discuss how you can leverage new features of SQL Server 2012 help make your data warehouse solution provide maximum value to your users. Speakers: Jeff Renz has been working in the IT industry for 14 years, the last 10 of which has been focused on designing and implementing data co...
Traits & Form Class led by Benjamin Seville, graduate and undergraduate architecture students built this one-fourth scale model of an irregular-elliptical vault from the Municipal Building in New York. We made the formwork, mixed the plaster and concrete, placed the tiles, EVERYTHING! Now we test to see if architecture students can build something that can stand.

This variation of model, is my favorite. The side inputs are high and rectangular. although the structure is less resistant in the center. Note: I like to have the ability and resources to do any of these models on a large scale. I want to publish a sequence of processing these types of patterns used in Paper Barrel Vault Architecture Origami Folding V1, V2, V3 and V4. but I leave it on hold. For the moment I prefer to create a new cylinder model based on these patterns to record the sequence of processing. These are the channels that I currently use. http://www.youtube.com/user/NeoSpicaTutorial https://gumroad.com/neospica https://www.youtube.com/user/CadDesignLive http://www.shapeways.com/designer/DesignLive http://www.flickr.com/photos/neoliveart/ http://facebook.com/NeoSpica Tha...

I think four versions based on a rigidly barrel vault with foldable side entrance. V1 This model is based on publications Tomohiro Tachi Origami Vault https://flic.kr/p/xveaW https://youtu.be/V38zwi1s9Hc The only change in this model was to try to show a triangular lintel.

This is an appendix to my Master Thesis in Architecture at Chalmers University of Technology. The title of the thesis is "Getting the arch back into architecture" and was presented in May 2014. The lasers are guided by Grasshopper through the amazing plug-in Firefly, which connects Grasshoper with Arduino micro controllers. I read about Cuban tile vaults (catalan vaults) in a web magazine in 2009 and it caught my intrest, which led me to read some research by John Ochsendorf and the new Thrust Network analysis by him and Philippe Block. Since then i have followed their research on compression structures and decided to dig a bit deeper in my master thesis to find a practical work flow to design vaults today, since I think they are an important part of future sustainable development in Arc...
