Claims (5)

1. A building ramework structure of spherical form of at least three frequency in which the main structural elements are connected in a geodesic-type pattern of great circle arcs and lesser circle arcs intersecting to form three-way grids defining triangles, the bottom edge of said structure terminating at a lesser circle other than the hemisphere and providing a planar surface edge.
2. A building framework structure as claimed in
3. Claim 1 and including hexagon and pentago modules. - 3. A building framework as claimed in Claim 2 wherein he structural elements are joined. by gusset plates perpendicular to the radial from the center of the sphere of the structure.
4. A building framexiork as claimed in Claim 2 wherein the modules have struts, the ends of said struts being joined by gusset plates perpendicular to the radial from the center of the sphere of the structure.- —
5. A building framework as claimed in Claim 4 wherein the struts of a module- include an external array of struts and an internal array of 3truts parallel to the external array, there being struts from the external array to the center of the module and struts from an external strut of the- outer array to the internal array.
