A method of construction by which the framework of various structures can be erected in a Geodesic manner is proposed. These structures are Geodesic in that they are comprised of a large number of a few identical parts and such that the pressure on the structure is distributed throughout the structure: In this case, the thicker the Dimensions of the parts the greater the strength of the structure. This method uses Hexagonal and Pentagonal cylinders as the main parts of the Geodesic structure, and similar Geodesic structures were proposed and built by the American Architect, the late R. Buckminster Fuller in the early 1960's. and many variations of Geodesics have been proposed and built since then. The concept has a mirror in the Molecular World, Specifically, the Carbon-60 Molecule discovered in 1985; The parent of a new family of molecular structures known as fullerenes named in honor of R. Buckminster Fuller. It is of special interest to note that R. Buckminster Fuller proposed that Domes assembled in a Geodesic manner would be extremely strong: These Domes mirror the molecular World, the Carbon-60 molecule, and it has transpired that the carbon-60 molecule is the strongest molecule known for it's size. Thus, this proposed method of construction would provide structures that are immensely strong; such a structure given a superior quality rating by this method would be immune from the destructive effects of Tornadoes, Hurricanes, and earthquakes.
