What is a "vault"?
A vault is an arched structure that forms a ceiling or roof over a space. It is created by arranging materials, such as bricks or stones, in a curved shape, allowing the weight above to be distributed evenly across the walls. Vaults can come in different shapes, including circular, pointed, or groined, depending on the design. They are often used in buildings like churches, cathedrals, and large halls, providing strength and stability while creating a visually appealing interior. Vaults also help to create open spaces without the need for many supporting columns, making them a popular choice in architecture.
