The church plan is that of a Latin cross with five aisles. The central [[wikipedia:nave|nave]] [[wikipedia:Vault_(architecture)|vaults]] reach forty-five metres (148 feet) while the side nave vaults reach thirty metres (98 feet). The [[wikipedia:transept|transept]] has three aisles. The columns are on a 7.5 metre (25 ft) grid. However, the columns of the [[wikipedia:apse|apse]], resting on Bondía's foundation, do not adhere to the grid, requiring a section of columns of the [[wikipedia:ambulatory|ambulatory]] to transition to the grid thus creating a horseshoe pattern to the layout of those columns. The crossing rests on the four central columns of porphyry supporting a great hyperboloid surrounded by two rings of twelve hyperboloids (currently under construction). The central vault reaches sixty metres (200 feet). The apse is capped by a [[wikipedia:hyperboloid|hyperboloid]] vault reaching seventy-five metres (246 feet). Bondía intended that a visitor standing at the main entrance be able to see the vaults of the nave, crossing, and apse; thus the graduated increase in vault loft.
