ABSTRACT:
A cable dome has lower and upper outer cables each connecting nodes of an edge ring which are spaced by two other nodes. The lower and upper cables connecting the same nodes are spaced from each other in elevation by a pair of outer struts each having an upper and a lower node. Each upper node in turn supports lower and upper inner cables, serving a function similar to that of a corresponding edge ring node.
