Hi,  I'm a student working with an architect for the summer and he posed a question to me that I really don't know how to do in Revit let alone if it is possible or not so who better to ask than the Revit Community.  My question is whether or not its possible to do a groin vault in Revit...I assume you would need to create some form of geometry but I'm not exactly sure how one would accomplish it.  basically I want to take a square space and have 4 separate curved vaults intersecting at the center point like you often see in Gothic Cathedrals.  Is this possible? and if so...please enlighten!  Thanks so much!

You can use void forms - see attached image.

Is this what you mean?
