Monolithic Constructors, Inc.
Mike South answers questions from attendees at the Fall 2023 Monolithic Dome Builders Workshop.
We build Monolithic Domes and offer planning and design services for projects large and small, commercial and residential. Through our sponsorship of the Monolithic Dome Institute, we provide expert resources on dome design, construction, and performance while sharing the stories and experiences of dome builders, professionals and owners.
Monolithic Constructors, Inc. (Monolithic) is the original Monolithic Dome construction company. We built the first Monolithic Dome in 1976, which resulted in patents for the process and marked the beginning of a new international industry.

Michael, Dave, and Gary are innovative leaders who take pride in delivering top-quality Monolithic Domes and related services in an approachable, collaborative way.
In addition to building domes, we fabricate Airforms and construct a wide range of fabric forms in our Caterpillar-shaped manufacturing plant.
Monolithic’s headquarters are located at the Monolithic Dome Research Park, where we sponsor the Annual Monolithic Dome Tour.
We also sponsor two Monolithic Dome Builders Workshops every year.
