ABSTRACT:
A hollow structure, such as a small shelter or a large auditorium constructed wholly of novel structural cells which are assembled without the need of nails, bolts, screws, or glue. The structure has a generally spherical or frusto-spherical shape formed by a plurality of circular horizontal rows of interlocked cells, the size and shape of cells in vertically adjacent rows bearing a certain mathematical relationship to one another.
