Keywords:
covering projection; fibration; finite space; push-out
Summary:
We find sufficient conditions for a cotriad of which the objects are locally trivial fibrations, in order that the push-out be a locally trivial fibration. As an application, the universal $G$-bundle of a finite group $G$, and the classifying space is modeled by locally finite spaces. In particular, if $G$ is finite, then the universal $G$-bundle is the limit of an ascending chain of finite spaces. The bundle projection is a covering projection.
