FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO UNDERSTAND WHAT DOMES ARE ALL ABOUT:

C: Eight Models Of Domes - US$ 15.00

The layouts for copying all the necessary parts of the models.
Types:
FROM THE KINGDOMES CORRESPONDENCE SCHOOL IN HOUSTON, TX

D: For Those Interested In Taking Courses on Geodesics and Building Construction -
This item is a booklet on geometry dealing with the geometric forms of geodesic domes. NEW: NOW with 21 polyhedral cutouts in five colours for making models.
E: Natures Forms - US$ 38.00

It describes the 9 basic polyhedra and some other natural geometry. The first nine polyhedra are used to develop an additional 12 polyhedra. These forms can also be studied in item F (D.P.G.S.). This booklet contains an introduction written in 1977 by the late Dr R. Bukcminster Fuller. This book is a real collectors item.


This is a booklet dealing with the geometry of geodiesic domes.

F: Development Pattern Of Geometric Structures - US$ 15.00

Discover a new way to order the polyhedra, not by aesthetic but by mathemathic principles. The D.P.G.S. also describes the fundamentals of a new theory on Natural Symmetries Unification closely related to the unsolved theories of quasi-crystals that were discovered in nature in 1984.


This is a generic geodesic dome information material.

G: Articles On Domes By Einar Thorsteinn - US$ 13.00

Most of these 24 articles were written for the DOME magazine in Wheat Ridge Colorado. Also included an interview with Einar Thorsteinn in 1990. Number of photographs : 238; Number of plans 41.


This is a booklet on geodesic domes. We recommend it to all dome home planners. It is a necessity for anyone planning to build a dome. A basic to the history of dome development. This has become a collectors item.

K: Kingdome Geodesic Building Manual - US$ 158.00

This is for do-it-yourselvers. It includes all the necessary information to build a 3/8 or 5/8 -3 frequency dome structure of the (US) flatbottomed type with or without riser walls. It is in the form of a manual, 16,5 X 23,5 inches, with 10 dome plans. You can choose from six different sizes of domes. The plans are designed so that you can order the strut/beam lumber ready-made from an builder-supplies company. There are no angles needed at the strut's ends! A simple bandsaw is needed to cut the plywood joint connectors.
We can help you with special solutions. This is a complete description for a operational house with interior wall ventilation which means no leakage and no moisture damage to the construction. The dome can have the wall thickness of your choice. There are NO metal joints necessary. You save US$ 3000.00 just by the elimination of metallic joints. (Metal joints, although generally used, represent an insulation leakage point that will damage your dome construction as time goes on. Because of this and other reasons this solution is a great step forward in practical dome design.)


A geodesic calculation program can now be downloaded from our pages. This will let you get quick answers to your dome calculations. The version we have online does not contain user manuals, plans, or other support documentation. This is available in the registered version. Try it, and when you register, you will receive complete documentation. If you cannot download, we can mail the program and documentation directly to you. Registration is only US$ 12.50, and you can use it over and over and over.

L: Kingdomes Calculator 1 - US$ 12.50

A new program to do all the math for domes: strut and cord lengths and numbers, angles, lumber/ material calculations, etc. for a variety of dome types, up to 120-frequency domes. Kingdome Calculator runs on Windows 3.1 and up. Registered version includes documentation, plans, and pictures of project domes, including erection and completion.
