FORMWORK AND METHOD FOR CONSTRUCTING FAMILY OF DOME-LIKE SHELL STRUCTURES

摘要

The present invention discloses a method for building a dome by reusing a basic segment. The method comprises the steps of determining a shape of the dome and determining a structure and dimensions of a basic structure unit of the dome named as a formwork. The method further comprises bending the formwork in a desired shape, pivoting the formwork and supporting the pivoted formwork through a support truss and mounting the formwork over a bas structure. The method further comprises pouring a filler material in the formwork and repeating the filling work in positions that are adjacent to an initial positioning of formwork.
