Build a DC Metro-Style Vaulted Station Ceiling
Choosing Your Arch Style
The mod offers four arch piece types: Waffle, Gull, Gambrel, and High Peak. Each creates a different visual effect:
- Waffle arches feature the classic DC Metro grid pattern
- Gull arches have a curved, swooping profile
- Gambrel arches create a steeper, barn-like vault
- High Peak arches form tall, dramatic overhead spans
Assembly Steps
1. Determine your platform width and mark the outer edges where arch supports will rest
2. Retrieve arch pieces from your inventory—they come in left, center, and right segments
3. Place the left arch piece against one platform edge
4. Connect center arch pieces in sequence across the platform width
5. Complete the vault with the right arch piece on the opposite side
6. Stack additional arch layers vertically if building a taller tunnel section
7. Fill any gaps between arch pieces with concrete or themed station blocks for a seamless look
Finishing Touches
Add track lights and platform screen doors beneath your completed vault to enhance authenticity. Consider mixing arch styles across different station sections for visual variety.
