Sure you can. *Think "cement domes" and only replace a window or two..


Look at these guys.

Man, what a POS website, though. *2/3 of the screen is menu, header,
and pic. *The slideshow doesn't work, the store doesn't work... It's
damaging their business. *sigh

They use cast cement panel construction of domes. *You assemble them on a
framework. Then cast cement into all the joints. Smooth and paint. *The
structure is very strong. I really can't think of a natural force that could
destroy it.


Yeah, cement is one tough nut for Mother Nature to crack. *Have you
seen the inflatable dome style? *They blow up a balloon and shoot
'crete over it. *It's a one-piece cast, prolly stronger than AI.http://www.monolithic.com/topics/homesis one maker. I like their
low-key video. (std disclaimer applies)


Very cool! I like those a lot.

May those who love us, love us;
And may those that don't love us,
May God turn their hearts;
And if he doesn't turn their hearts,
may he turn their ankles,
So we'll know them by their limping.
