Waterparks and Family Entertainment Centers

One of the newest uses for the Monolithic dome is in the Waterpark and Family Entertainment Center industry. Dome Technology has completed several park designs and is negotiating several more.

Construction Cost of Dome Waterparks are Frequently Less Than Conventional Construction

Domes are often more economical when compared to large conventional free span structures.

High Energy Efficiency

The insulation is placed between the outer waterproof membrane and the reinforced concrete shell. This allows the concrete to act as a "heat sink" enabling greater temperature control, and fewer temperature fluctuations. The heating, ventilation, and air conditioning units required are smaller because of the thermal properties of the building.

Rapid Construction

The dome is constructed inside the enclosed airform®. This creates a controlled environment, enabling construction to progress rapidly regardless of weather.

Better Space Utilization and more Flexibility

Bearing walls and columns are not required in domes. This benefit provides maximum utilization of space.

Lower insurance Premiums

The thin shell concrete dome is fire resistant, and resistant to most natural disasters. Subsequently, the insurance premiums for property coverage can be substantially less that conventional buildings.
