Home in the Earth | 41.3 Building the radial vault ceiling forms @SimonHomeintheEarth | Uploaded February 2020 | Updated October 2024, 10 hours ago.
In preparation for shooting the gunnite on the roof of our earth sheltered home, we needed to put up some forms that would keep the concrete up in the right place.  The radial vaults have simple curvature, so the plan was to build the forms from boards pressed up against the steel arches.  Making that happen took some compromises in the plan.  As usual, challenges arose.  Enjoy.
