| Sumario: | [EN] The doctoral thesis document presented here approaches studies related to representative cross vaults from heritage buildings constructed after Jaume I king conquered the Valencian territory. The text focuses specifically on vaults ranging from the middle XIII century to the first years of the XVI century. The document contains a general exposure of all of the vaults to give a complete overview, but is focused particularly on the specific study of a selection of these elements. Geometry, Art and Construction are the words that sum up the way the vaults of the period under study was conceived. Geometry and Construction were closely related from their first stages, being impossible the building of such vaults without the geometry and considered as a whole as an art and going further, putting all the elements in conjunction with its historical context, although the specific analysis of certain elements and concrete aspects focuses especially vaults built in the fifteenth century. The exposed thesis has its origin in the work developed to obtain the Master in architectural heritage conservation certificate by the Universitat Politècnica de València. This master work named "Anastylosis of the architectural remains of the Valldigna monastery" was started at 1997 and publicly defended on March 3rd, 2000. For the work on that occasion, the architectonic remains were studied, but the research was directed basically on the star vault which covered the chapter hall before its overthrow. The research stayed, then, opened for deeper further studies, which are approached in this doctoral thesis. The present document exposes a more detailed geometric analysis of the first results obtained in the master work, but now, using a variety of methods- both graphics and mathematics-, together with an study of the architecture, stonework and stereotomy treatises. Also, this study contains a comparative analysis with other contemporary cross vaults focused on their geometry and construction, but putting the spotlight in the comparison with another starry vault which covers the chapel adjoining the hiring hall of the Lonja de Valencia, built at the same time (in the latest years of the XV century). This doctoral thesis points specially in the architectonic research of star vaults pertaining to the late fifteenth century to achieve a geometric approach of its traces techniques, to gain insights about the geometric methods for the design of nerves templates and to do a geometric-constructive analysis of keys, of the springings and of the severies vaults studied in order to obtain spatial hypothesis of how they were thought and generated. Also, another issues are studied as the use of color in the vaults, the contextualization of the contemporaries stonecutters masters, the mason marks, etc. The overall objective set from the outset was to be able to establish a methodology for graphic hypothesis of spatial geometry of missing ribbed vaults built in the period under review of any building or monument by the study of the elements that remained or were known and the establishment of a methodology to hypothesize geometric and constructive generation of vaults feet from the analysis of the same elements. These general objectives are developed from more specific partial objectives. |
