Vault Analysis

If the vault support conditions are defined for the solution together with the building, the vault is solved interactively with the structure. Vault analysis is already done with the Analysis + Design (F9) command.

If the vault support conditions are defined as a separate solution with the building, the vault solution is made with Dome + Vault Analysis.
