Home in the Earth | 41.0 Erecting the Radial Vault Steel (Part 1) @SimonHomeintheEarth | Uploaded January 2020 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
The center section of the house design features radial vaults between those large concrete ribs. I had the steel arches rolled back when we first started and will link to that video below. For this phase, I had to erect the steel arches, at the correct height and then add all the rebar according to the engineering drawings.

There are actually 10 radial vaults between 11 arches. This video shows the first 6 standard arches. All were 30 degree segments.
The following video will show the remaining 4 arches (two larger ones and two smaller ones) and a final walk thru.
Note the ADIRpro self leveling laser used was a gift from the people at ADIRpro. Self leveling lasers really are very useful on projects like this where a spirit level would be impossible and I have had very bad luck with trying to level the cheaper lasers.
