Technologies of frame construction of domed structures are still quite rarely used in Ukraine because of their exotic character. But even now on the territory of elite suburban settlements you can often find original spherical structures — geodesic dome houses. What are the special features of such projects? Why are they better than standard brick buildings in terms of performance? Let’s try to find out.
Dome architecture
Firstly domed house construction mastered many hundreds (thousands) of years ago. Why did our ancestors choose this particular form? Several factors contributed to it:
- Spherical structures better withstand winds, perfectly capable of withstanding the snow load.
- The dome-shaped structure allows the best possible distribution of interior space.
- The sphere has a minimum surface area with maximum volume, which means that its heat loss is also minimal.
All these factors are relevant today if you want to quickly and inexpensively build a cottage. After all, with the same usable area of interior space, the construction of such a building requires 20-25% less building materials.
Benefits of geodesic domed structures
If we consider the construction of a house on a turn key basis, the dome buildings win not only due to better performance, higher ergonomics. The financial component plays an important role. Prices for turnkey houses are largely determined by materials. In the case of a geodesic dome their cost is significantly lower as well as the cost of heating, ventilation.
