Overview




Background or Origin of Article

Barrel Vault

A Barrel Vault is an arched shape, similar to the roof of a tunnel. As the upper parts of the arch push the lower sections out, something must be resisting that outward pressure. In a tunnel the fill around the tunnel does this, but above ground this is done with thick walls that support it.[1]
