A groin vault or groined vault (also sometimes known as a double barrel vault or cross vault) is produced by the intersection at right angles of two barrel vaults. [1] The word "groin" refers to the edge between the intersecting vaults.
A groin vault is formed by the perpendicular intersection of two barrel vaults. This creates a series of ridges or "groins" where the vaults intersect, hence the name. The result is a structure that is inherently stable and capable of supporting considerable weight with minimal use of materials.
Groin Vault. The vault based on the principle of crossing at right angles two barrel vaults of the same diameter without ribs. It is supported on four pillars or columns located in the corners of the square (rooms). The supports are diagonally formed and the load is carried along them.
A groin vault or groined vault (also sometimes known as a double barrel vault or cross vault) is produced by the intersection at right angles of two barrel vaults. The word "groin" refers to the edge between the intersecting vaults. Sometimes the arches of groin vaults are pointed instead of round.
Groin vaults are architectural structures formed by the intersection of two barrel vaults at right angles, creating a series of arches that support the roof or ceiling. This design not only distributes weight efficiently but also allows for expansive spaces with fewer supporting columns, making it a key feature in ancient Roman architecture.
A groin vault is formed by the intersection of two barrel vaults, creating a ceiling with four curved surfaces that converge at right angles. This design not only distributes weight evenly but also creates a striking visual impact that has been admired for centuries.
