Vault repair is delicate surgery. Teams reconnect ribs, stitch webs, and grout to re‑establish continuity.
🧰 Methods
- Pins & plates: Stainless connectors for cracked ribs.
- Web stitching: Needle repairs and micro‑mortars.
- Monitoring: Sensors verify movement.
📐 Compatibility
- Mortars: Lime‑based for breathability.
- Inserts: Reversible where possible.
- Visuals: Retain grain and color.
A vault is a tent of stone—care reconnects the seams.
