The use of modern polymer materials and wood in the construction of buildings in the form of geodesic domes

Spherical structures have been used by mankind since time immemorial in religious and public buildings, as well engineering structures. With the development of lightweight design construction, non-standard architectural planning solutions are used. More more frequently they being successfully implemented private home projects becoming a fact everyday life. This may be explained certain advantages form, opportunities offered to construction industry age new materials technologies for works performance. The functional architectural-structural round-shaped buildings form geodesic domes will allow creating comfortable, cost-effective, energy-efficient environmentally expedient conditions human habitation taking into account shortage land areas increased demand alternative housing options due environmental situation around world. article analyzes experience building spherical different types scales. authors present results research carried out field dome improvement with use wood polymer materials.
