Compared to conventional steel structures, aluminum dome roofs are more lightweight. This not only simplifies the construction process but also reduces the load on the tank itself. The lightweight design provides greater design flexibility, making aluminum dome roofs suitable for various sizes and shapes of drinking water storage tanks.

3. Strength and Stability

The application of aluminum alloy imparts superior strength to aluminum dome roofs, enabling them to withstand various external loads, including wind and snow loads. The stable structural design ensures that the top of drinking water storage tanks remains robust in adverse weather conditions, ensuring water quality safety.

Advantages of Aluminum Dome Roofs

1. Low Maintenance Costs

The excellent corrosion resistance of aluminum dome roofs eliminates the need for frequent maintenance during use. In comparison to other materials, there is no requirement for periodic repainting, significantly reducing maintenance costs and providing an economically viable solution for water management.

2. Sustainability and Environmental Friendliness

Aluminum is a recyclable material, and the use of aluminum dome roofs contributes to reducing resource waste, aligning with the principles of sustainable development. Additionally, the production and processing of aluminum are relatively environmentally friendly, minimizing adverse impacts on the environment.

3. Compliance with Industry Standards

The design and manufacturing of aluminum dome roofs consider the specific requirements of drinking water storage tanks, complying with industry standards and regulations. For example, they may adhere to the standards of the American Water Works Association (AWWA D108), ensuring compliance with water treatment facility requirements in design and construction.

Corrosion-resistant and low-maintenance aluminum dome Roof

The aluminum geodesic dome roof also called the geodesic dome, is a thin shell structure based on geodesic polyhedron. The elements of the dome are usually triangular and arranged in a pattern. After completion, the structure is strong and can withstand relatively heavy loads compared to their low weight and size.

Aluminum geodesic dome roofs can be found in museums, libraries, art galleries, sports and entertainment facilities and even homes. For industrial and manufacturing purposes, they are placed on top of various containers and containers, such as processing containers and above-ground storage tanks that contain petroleum/fuel products or almost any liquid or dry bulk chemicals.

We have a proprietary aluminum geodesic dome roof design manufactured in accordance with API 650 Appendix G. The geodetic network quality standards will exceed your expectations for design, material manufacturing, parts and installation details to provide safe and high-quality installation.

Due to the popularity of modern architectural design, the geodesic dome roof can also cover above-ground storage tanks (AST) in the oil and gas, chemical and water treatment industries. These metal structures are susceptible to some forms of corrosion, but the risk can be reduced through flexible industrial coatings.

Below you can find some of the advantages of the aluminum geodesic dome roof:

Due to its design features, the geodesic dome roof has a high strength-to-weight ratio and inherent structural integrity, which can evenly distribute structural stress throughout the structure.

The main purpose of the roof is to cover and protect the contents of the container by preventing rainwater and debris from infiltrating. The geodetic dome roof can especially prevent rainwater from falling from the outer floating roof of the storage tank, or allow the use of an internal floating roof design.

They also provide a way to comply with government regulations on steam emissions. The clear span design of the geodesic not only eliminates the need for internal support beams, but also reduces the number of holes through the structure that may leak steam. The roof blocks wind flow to significantly reduce steam emissions from the water tank.

There is no need to support the internal pillars of the roof, the aluminum dome is self-supporting.

The aluminum dome is lighter. Approximately 3 times lower than the steel roof.

The aluminum geodesic dome roof is maintenance-free. No need to paint, refurbish, etc.

The aluminum geodesic dome roof is waterproof.

The aluminum geodesic dome roof is easy to install, because the dome roof does not require any paint, which reduces on-site installation time and craftsmanship.

The aluminum geodesic dome roof is made of aluminum and fully complies with API 650 standards.
