Summary: We study the convex hull $P_{\cal A}$ of the 0-1 incidence vectors of all triangulations of a point configuration ${\cal A}$. This was called the universal polytope in citeBIFIST. The affine span of $P_{\cal A}$ is described in terms of the co-circuits of the oriented matroid of ${\cal A}$. Its intersection with the positive orthant is a quasi-integral polytope $Q_{\cal A}$ whose integral hull equals $P_{\cal A}$. We present the smallest example where $Q_{\cal A}$ and $P_{\cal A}$ differ. The duality theory for regular triangulations in citeBIGEST is extended to cover all triangulations. We discuss potential applications to enumeration and optimization problems regarding all triangulations.
