Fig. A.
Area or Vault Light Roofs (fig A)
AREA OR VAULT LIGHT ROOFS.
    The above (Fig. A) represents an area roof with steps and risers, the sidewalk being below the tiling. By this form of construction more light is thrown into the building, and the roof cannot be used as a public walk. The elevator doors are also shown, taking the place of solid iron doors.
Fig. B.
Area or Vault Light Roofs (fig B)

    Fig. B is substantially the same as the first, excepting that there is no rise, the lower portion forming part of the sidewalk.
Fig. C.
Area or Vault Light Roofs (fig C)

    The above engraving (Fig. C) represents the tiling as applied to the front of a private residence or public building, taking the place of stone or marble. It represents a more elegant appearance than either marble or granite, throws light back into the halls, and can be put up as cheaply as from the materials mentioned.
