For example, those single taxpayers with $5,000 of Social Security benefits in the example above would see their marginal tax rate on nonâSocial Security income boosted by 50 percent if their modified AGI was between $25,000 and $30,000 and by 85 percent if their modified AGI was between $34,000 and $36,000.
Three types of vault were commonly used: the barrel-vault, the groined or four-part vault, and the dome. The barrel-vault was generally semi-cylindrical in section, and was used to cover corridors and oblong halls, like the temple-cellas, or was bent around a curve, as in amphitheatre passages.
Around 1050 AD, people began using a different kind of vault - the groin vault. It's called a groin vault because the parts meet together in a V, like the V where your legs come together. You make a groin vault by building two barrel vaults that cross each other, so that they make an X. A groin vault can be rounded, as in Romanesque churches, or pointed, as in Gothic churches. The main advantage of the groin vault is that it takes all the weight of the roof and concentrates it on just four points at the corners of each bay (each X).
