Wire lath can suffice the tightest of radius's as well. Don't forget, if you have a window dormer or window within the ceiling assembly, make it interesteing by "returning" the window to the ceiling using the same radius as the ceiling only adjacent to the ceiling for the desired distance of the return. Freedom of form-Wire lath & Plaster-That's why it's been around for 2000+yrs. & in essence, your building your own trusses.
