The following has been demonstrated and proven by the deployment of over 200,000 geodesic domes around the world.
Geodesic domes are the strongest structures per weight of materials employed. The larger the dome - the higher the frequency - the stronger the structure becomes.
Geodesic domes, when properly vented cool themselves, which eliminates air conditioning. This happens because of the Bernoulli effect.
During the winter months heat loss can be reduced by up to eighty percent in comparison with conventional rectangular structures.
Geodesic domes are semi-autonomous: Electrical wiring and wet plumbing can be eliminated.
Geodesic domes are easy to assemble, disassemble, and to transport.
Geodesic domes can provide very low cost housing because of all of the above. More savings: In order to build a conventional rectangular family size home in Canada, the builder would be required to spend between $40,000 and $60,000 on the foundation alone. Such expensive foundations are not required for geodesic domes.
Geodesic dome parts must be manufactured because they are high technology dwelling machines. The geodesic domes, which were built during the 1960's in the state of California, did not work because low-tech building methods were used. It would be like trying to build a digital radio receiver with parts and materials used in the 1940's for non-digital radio receivers.
They are building and using Geodesic Domes extensively in Japan. Why are we not using them here in North America or Europe? Please do some meditation and see if you can come up with the answer. Please visit my SOCIETY GUIDE. Have a wonderful day! --Larry
