Aluminum Geodesic Domes and covers

Geodesic Domes for storage tanks are spherical frame structures that are self-supporting. . The geodesic frame is covered with attractive, aluminum or stainless steel panels. These alloys have a proven history of weather resistance even in the harshest environments in the world. This virtually eliminates the need for periodic maintenance, coatings, or paint for the life of the structure. Each dome is designed with the most modern computer technology to check all loading combinations to ensure safety and integrity under all conditions.

The geodesic dome covers are custom engineered for your unique structure. The self-supporting design allows maximum overhead space utilization and provides interference-free operation for floating roofs and other internals. The aspect ratio of the dome can be selected for your location and specific application, offering a range from a very flat, low profile to a high dome for more internal clearance.

Also, a wide range of accessories (vents, skylights, dormers, hatches, foam connections, etc.) is available to meet all your needs.
