Dome built from top down
384 ft diam geodesic dome for tank car repair facilities was built at Wood River, Ill; 117 ft high structure was pneumatically supported during construction on 1/32 in. thick DuPont nylon balloon; calculations of safety factor of nylon enclosure; problem of air losses; pipe framework provides geodesic truss supports for 804 hexagonal steel panels, each about 15 ft across; completed dome structure rests on peripheral thrust ring and on vertical concrete piles. (see also similar unsigned article in Eng News-Rec v 164 n 1 Jan 7 1960 p 28-30)
