In architecture, the double bay system (or engaged system) is the arrangement commonly found in Romanesque architecture, where the internal space of basilicas is subdivided into three spaces, the nave and two side aisles, with aisles having half the width of the nave. This arrangement required the vaults to be twice smaller as well, so supports in the side aisles had to be spaced at half the step of the supports in the nave.
