Dome is an element similar to the hollow half of a sphere. It can also be defined as a thin shell generated by the revolution of a regular curve about one of its axes. The type of the curve and the direction of the axis of revolution determines the shape of the dome. Monolithic dome structures are cast in a one-piece form. The paper aims to do a comprehensive study of Monolithic Domes and the various advantages and key aspects of these structures and to determine whether they are more energy efficient, eco-friendly, cost effective and durable housing options compared to conventional structural systems.
