Shelter Dome Engineering

Tried and Tested: Nature's own Geometry

Many progressive architects replicate nature's designs to insure structural integrity. R. Buckminster Fuller was a man ahead of his time. When he published the math for his geodesic dome, he was immediately contacted by a German scientist who proclaimed it is the exact math found in the cell wall. Current scientists have named nano particles "Bucky Balls". Russian scientists have photos from space showing the earth is an icosahedron.

The American Institute of Architects has acclaimed the geodesic dome "the strongest, lightest and most efficient means of enclosing space known to man". They handle hurricane winds, extreme snow loads and are the safest structure in an earthquake.

Pacific Domes are engineered for both internal and external weight loads. We offer an in-house structural analysis upon request.

To be approved for permitting, your local building department may require engineering documents. Our architect and engineer can help you meet your requirements.
