  This software is for constructing geodesic domes. Actually you need to have Autocad rel. 12, 13, 14, Intellicad 2000, Intellicad 7.2 or ProgeCAD 2013 installed on your computer to run this software. If you are interested in purchasing dome software please send me an email with the version you need. Other Autcad versions can be supported too.

  Entered dome parameter data is saved in a relational database for further usage. This way, each dome parameters can be retrieved easily later or used for constructing more domes of the same type.  
     
Take a look to another example to see one more advanced feature : each constructed dome element can be removed to get openings for windows or doors. click to enlarge    click to enlarge    click to enlarge    click to enlarge
