*$7k for insulated, 16' diameter dome - with ring foundation and floor, and walls, with aircrete for insulation for foundation - and to build up floor - otherwise it's concrete with styrofoam. They take a cement mixer. Use wood mulch - in mixer so styrofoam goes down into it. Aircrete Harry does the styrofoam concrete. Wood mulch - shredded paper and styrofoam. 32 hours to make one of these domes by Aircrete Harry. You make the air form out of Tyvek. Lay out a patterm of masonite. Lay tyvek on top. 12 pieces stacked. Then you use angle iron, slit part way, as arches. Use a leaf blower. Plus flap on top, that controls the amount of air pressure. | *$7k for insulated, 16' diameter dome - with ring foundation and floor, and walls, with aircrete for insulation for foundation - and to build up floor - otherwise it's concrete with styrofoam.
