ABSTRACT:
An improved dome structure on a base is disclosed comprising of a membrane sandwiched between layers of rigidifying material such as shotcrete which also serve to embed the circumferential and radial prestressing members. Circumferential prestressing can be applied to minimize bursting stresses. Further layers of rigidifying material can then be applied over the circumferential prestressing as a final protection and cover. The radial prestressing materials can contain spacers or hooks to preclude the circumferential prestressing material from riding up on the structure. The lower portion of the dome can include a reverse curvature to minimize stresses and stabilize the structure.
