Abstract The striving for the use in the operation of dome structures of all the elements creating the dome: ribs and the plank shell led to the creation of a dome having the form of a thin-wall rotating shell. Thin-wall domes were called such domes in which of an essential importance in the load capacity of the structure is the shell from planks nailed onto the meridionally laid assembly ribs. The dome’s geometry was formed using assembly ribs, creating at the same time a technological scaffolding of the plank shell. The use of meridional technological ribs also allowed to maintain the computational, mathematical shape of the shell. The ribs, upon consolidation with the shell from several layers of planks, substantially increased the load capacity of the complex structure of the dome.
