Abstract: |
Compound domes are a family of compound structural forms that are created by combination of spatial domes. There are many options to create compound structural forms. In this paper however, a method for generating compound spatial domes will be observed. It would mainly be focused on geometrical aspects of the combination process as well as making possible modifications, using formex configuration processing. |
