Barrel vaults combine long spans (up to 150 ft) with minimum of material; basic elements; types of structures, such as multiple barrels, with inclined edge beams at sides, or using alternate solid and open end panels, and upturned edge beam, corrugated curves, etc; north light shell designs used for buildings requiring excellent natural lighting, cylindrical shell vaults, constructed with segments of arches, arranged in form of Y, called butterfly roof; edge supported vaults.
