Aluminium dome roofs for bulk storage projects

Our unique space truss design and highly engineered components combine to make Aluminium Domes the ideal solution for challenging environmental enclosure problems.

Whether it is keeping the elements out or getting the largest amount of bulk in the smallest amount of space, an aluminium dome has proven itself time and again. Consider the advantages in bulk storage and material handling. Domes offer the ideal span-to-rise ratio in standard and custom designed configurations for any clearance requirement. In applications requiring vertical headroom near the dome's edge Aluminium Domes can be erected on vertical steel wall frames, providing maximum unhampered space for material handling.

Light and Strong
Yet another advantage of a dome is its light weight. This means reduced foundation costs. But its weight belies in its strength. When applications require, Aluminium Domes can even be designed to support heavy processing equipment. From the blazing Mojave Desert to the humitidy of Singapore and the gale force winds and snow of the Antarctic, Aluminium Domes have repeatedly proven their strength, durability and flexibility.

Dome features
- maintenance free, no need for any blasting or painting
- excellent vapour tightness, resulting in eliminating any hazardous or irritating emissions and odours
- keeps contaminants out from the treatment process
- moderates process temperatures
- fully compatible with all waste water effluents, including high sulphur containing vapour fractions
- light weight and clear-span structure manufactured from aluminium and stainless steel
- can be fitted on installations in service with minimum modifications.
- expected service life in excess of 40 years
- designed for each specific project, complying with local building codes
- easy and quick installation, full installation manuals and project support available
- successfully installed at many wastewater plants around the world
- can be designed for high wind- and snow loads
- esthetical solution in reducing irritating and hazardous odours

From the blazing Mojave Desert to the humitidy of Singapore and the gale force winds and snow of the Antarctic, Aluminium Domes have repeatedly proven their strength, durability and flexibility.

Dome features
- Able to deal with high load requirements by providing greater stiffness and
  strength, pound-for-pound, than any other dome geometry system (like snow
  loads of up to 165 pounds per square foot and windloads of up to 150 mph.
  or 240 km/hr)
- maintenance free, as the permanent aluminum exterior never rusts, rots, spalls, nor solar degrades
- economic construction option as domes use less material and labor than
- conventional constructions, overall costs are lower and construction time is shorter.
- The built-in advantages and lifetime beauty of an Aluminum Dome will be
appreciated for years to come
- light weight and free-span structure manufactured from aluminium and
stainless steel
- full installation manuals and project support available
Large, clear spans
The possibility to cover large diameters of up to 900 ft. (270 m.) offers unique solutions for material handling and environmental problems. There are no columns, no trusses, no internal supports or other obstacles hampering equipment configurations or transfer of materials stored. Apart from that the dome structures used are strong enough to support the suspensions of concentrated equipment loads and strong enough to withstand the harshest climates.
Light weight
The light weight of an aluminium dome reduces foundation costs. The dome itself will keep the elements out, prevent the stored materials from spreading under strong winds and shield it from direct sun light exposure. Spraying of stored materials is significantly reduced or will not be required at all anymore after covering the material storage area.

Supporting sidewalls
The dome can be installed on vertical steel, stainless steel or aluminium frames in situations requiring vertical headroom near the dome’s edge. This will provide maximum unhampered space for material handling.

Unique batten bar design:
The unique and patented batten bar design of an aluminium dome is a tremendous asset . The used materials will not deteriorate under ultra-violet light or elevated temperatures. The unique batten bar construction is not only the basis for a leak-free dome structure, but it also adds structural strength to the dome roof.

Installation
Domes can be installed in many different ways, depending on the site conditions, the size and the available time for installation. There are very few structures however that can match the engineering and production time required for supplying a dome, apart from the fact that a dome is a very economical and esthetical cover for large areas.
