How big can a geodesic dome be?

Currently, many geodesic domes are larger than 113 m in diameter.

How do you find a geodesic dome angle?

The formula is: (tip to hole center) X 2 X number of struts. Ex.: a dome requiring 100 struts with bolts 3/4″ from the tip requires 100 X 3/4″ X 2 = 150 inches (12.5 feet) more to the total above. For conduit, you can round bend angles to the nearest degree.

Why was the geodesic dome invented?

Buckminster Fuller designed the geodesic dome following World War II as part of his experimentation to create affordable and efficient housing that could be built quickly from mass-produced parts.

Visit http://www.vertexhubs.com for more information. Geodesic domes made with a metallic frame are the premium versions of greenhouses. they are much sturdier, they last a very long time and are ideal for growing food year-round.

Why choose Timberline geodesic homes?

Built in all types of climates, Timberline Geodesic Homes offer unmatched energy efficiency. Timberline Domes use 30% less surface area to enclose the same amount of volume as a box type structure. This means there is less area for heat to escape or outside air to penetrate.
