ABSTRACT:
A dome-like structure is disclosed which is non-circular in plan, the structure being formed of a plurality of substantially straight-edged panels. At each of a plurality of horizontal levels in the structure the edges of the panels each extend between a respective pair of points on a notional envelope of the structure. The structure is so designed that, at each said level, the points do not all lie upon a common circle, but that for each set of three adjacent horizontally spaced said points, either: a) all three are at equal radii from a point in the same plane, or b) two adjacent ones of the three points are at a first equal radial distance from a point in said plane and the remaining point is at the same distance as the adjoining point of said set from a point on a radius from the point to said adjoining point.
