The dome easily held my weight of 240 lbs from just one section of the dome and did not even flinch. You could probably pull your car transmission out with this dome.
The bamboo is much, much stronger than the 1.5" PVC struts.
For our next bamboo dome, we will use much longer struts, as bamboo does not flex like PVC.
It appears that using 65 of the 10' long bamboo struts for building a 32' wide and 16' tall 2v dome would be practical with this setup.
With 165 of the 10' bamboo struts, a 3v 5/8 dome that is 50' wide and 29' tall with 41,000 cubic feet of volume and 1,956 floor space would be a possible structure, with the
3v 5/8 hubs costing $488.00
