| Description | This paper studies the existing cases of brick vaults by slices in Toledo (Spain). This forms part of a wider study of the Mediterranean cases of this type of vault, which does not require formwork, focused on finding similarities in their constructive configuration and tracing their dissemination. The methodology is based on data collection of the preserved remains by automated photogrammetry to generate three-dimensional models allowing the study of their formal and constructive configurations. Twenty-six vaults in nine buildings, out of a total sample of eleven, have been analyzed. All cases present a rectangular or irregular polygonal plan and most display rounded vaults that remain far from perfect spheres. The study of the constructive evidence leads us to consider that a cintrel might have not been used as a control tool in the construction process. Book Name: History of Construction Cultures |
