Systems and methods for providing rounded vault forming structures

摘要

Rounded vault forming structures and the systems and methods for making the same are disclosed. Such structures include a monolithic building having one or more arches, one or more integrated hip structures, and a non-circular outer circumferential shaped base. At least some of the structures result in zero to extremely low amounts of waste material from building such structures.

主权项

1. A method for providing a monolithic building, the method comprising:
attaching an air form to a surface of a foundation; inflating the air form; attaching a non-inflated hip form to an outer surface of the air form; and applying a building material to the outer surface of the air form and an outer surface of the hip form to form a seamless interface between an arched portion and a hip portion of a resulting monolithic building that covers both the air form and the hip form.
