AB  - This paper examines the structural response in a thin shell concrete dome with construction openings. The weight of the dome is carried in axial compression along the hoops and meridians of the dome. The openings interrupt the hoops and meridians and the dome’s weight must be redistributed around the open- ings; resulting in zones of increased compression near the opening. In the affected areas there is a significant difference between the compression on the top surface of the dome, and that on the bottom surface. The dome was cast in two layers. This study examines the potential for fracture (and…
