New aluminum geodesic dome protects drinking water

Engineered Storage Products of DeKalb, Illinois, has introduced the Aquastore® Aluminum Geodesic Dome. Designed for installation primarily on Aquastore and Tecstore® tanks and suitable for retrofitting on any tank, the dome protects drinking water safety and ensures resistance to corrosive vapours for wastewater, process water and landfill leachate applications.

The Aquastore dome is manufactured in ISO 9001 certified facilities, using proprietary variations of geodesic geometry. Features include:

Diameters range from 11 feet to 148 feet for a full range of municipal and industrial uses.
Integrated aluminum structural frames are rigid and lightweight.
The struts are fabricated from high-quality aluminum (6005 A-T6) for strength and durability.
The advanced batten-bar design locks panels into place and protects the silicone or neoprene gaskets from ultraviolet rays.

The dome’s advanced structural design meets exacting load requirements. All calculations and assumptions are validated using ALGOR finite element analysis.

Designed for fast on-site installation, the dome is constructed from standard components that allow easy assembly. Its low-maintenance service life also provides cost-efficiencies.
