Engineering and Permit Support for Dome Kits
Our dome kits are permanent structures. Engineering and stamped documentation for permitting are available in all 50 states, scoped to your site and jurisdiction.
Engineered for Your Site
Wind
The geodesic shape distributes wind loads across the whole frame instead of fighting them. Wind loads are addressed in the engineering for your site, with stamped documentation for your jurisdiction.
Snow
Dome geometry sheds snow naturally, and the pre-welded aluminum frame is engineered for the snow loads at your site — with stamped snow-load documentation for your jurisdiction.
Seismic
A light frame with even weight distribution. Seismic requirements are addressed in the engineering for your site where your jurisdiction requires it.
Foundations
Most customers choose a pier foundation with a raised deck; a concrete slab is also an option. Foundation guidelines come with the kit.
Event domes: Permitting documentation and engineering are available in all 50 states. Anchoring and project documents depend on the engineering and the specific job. Ask on the rentals page.
