S IMPLIFIED GEODESIC DOME JOINTS
Understanding the basic mathematics of the Geodesic, a cost efficient detail is devised which tackles the issue of complex angles, strength of joints & eventual roofing possibilities.
A simple technology leads to variety of solutions. One such principle giving scope for a wide range of innovations is the construction of a dome by triangulation which combines two of the most stable structures i.e. the triangle with the hemisphere.
Energy conservation, but at an affordable cost is what this simplified system illustrates.
