Illustrated cross-section of the Hoop Dome.
Illustrated cross-section for a 111-foot diameter hoop-style Monolithic Dome. The layers of construction from the polyurethane foam, reinforcing steel, and shotcrete create a single structure without a joint at the top of the wall. In other words, it only looks like a wall and a dome when, in fact, it’s a monolithic structure that is both strong and energy efficient.
