This is where you access the videos for the No-Mold basalt fiber dome building course. The video course provides a closer, more detailed look at everything contained in the e-manual.

This method is the simplest method of building an engineered thin concrete dome shell structure that is capable of complying with the Australian Building Code. It is a high labour content suitable for DIY and smaller projects.

A small group of people can construct a 3.0m dia. dome from the completed slab in a week.

Included with the No-Mold Video Course:

  • the bamboo e-manual
  • the basalt e-manual
  • the above e-manuals receive free updates for life

Remember to get in touch for any questions and clarifications along the way.
