Concrete Block Dome House - Slide Show
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- A 500 sq. ft. dome home built in Santa Cruz de Yojoa, Honduras with blocks. Natural lighting and air conditioning, storm proof, easily expanded, uses local materials and hand labour. 70% cheaper than rectangular equivalent.

OMG! What a beautiful Dome Home, thank you for sharing!!!
You people with the thumbs down...Do you think these people care what you think...This house is better than no house...Once you sleep in the streets one night in 100 degree weather..You will understand...Muy linda casa. # Felicidades. Bendiciones :))
A donde vive Mari? There are, certainly, changes that I would make in a second build but I was, and continue to be, quite pleased with the result of the first build. By keeping the diameters of the domes fairly small the results are easier to achieve. A Birdcage Dome would be better for larger diameter domes and a ferro-cement vault structure might be, in the end, the best way to go. Either way, a "cement" roof with an arch/dome shape is so very much cooler and quieter. Thanks.

This is just great!!!!
Very good no terminates...i like even more...like the idea that air will be circulating because the humility gets traps..like this it helps .
Super cool. I have been interested in Dome homes for many years - so cool to see how you did this one. I am in the process of starting up some projects in Nicaragua, I chose to go the Monolithic ecoshell route, with an airform and balsat rebar for centuries of longevity. Thanks for the video
Hey , how did you go in Nica?
Well that's a sad story I hope to rectify in the future. We got all the equipment down there and had a mayor of a place willing to build them.. but ran into some NGO issues. Very sad but hope to get it going again sometime.
Ohh, well I am looking forward to hear how you are going to take appropriate action once you give it another shot. Keep me updated mate. I bought some small land few years back close to popoyo. Haven't started doing something with the land just yet , after I get finance right and upskilling myself I will start creating heaven and purifying the area . Yew. Have you got channel?
Looks like old diving helmets. Very nice.
Wao...i didnt know was in Costa Rica...iam Tica.
Just beautiful ..i love the blue color..with green nature.
Yo tambien..voy comprar tierra me hago 3 casitas
Very nice, and reasonably priced. This type of construction would be a nice commercial building as well.
So Amazing, I would like one of these for hurricane season!
Belíssimo trabalho de arte!!!
A great job and idea...I WANT ONE!
a. Mortar mix was similar to any used by local block layers. Likely about a 3:1. My masons did what they knew.
b. Roof is a plexiglass ... not a glass. I would, for other buildings use a clear roofing (they have clear panels that match the profile of normal metal roofing) ... way cheaper.
c. Didn't use rebar except at the top - 1/4" to hold the blocks up until the ring was complete. Once each ring was complete, compression took over.
That's truly beautiful. Wonderful job.
Well done.
bryan well thats interesting right off bat , full build pizza oven, is it still good or cracks of moving earth. build square only if you cant be trained
Very nice
Que cosas tan hermosas bien por la madre naturaleza lo nesecita
This home will never go out of style would you make any changes its 3 years now since the first domes were built and where are you located in the states or in Honduras? Would love to see more projects similar to this one. Since these units were built in 2015 how have they held up to earthquakes and severe weather rain Sun/ heat ?
Nice
nice build
Very nice.
termites will be very disappointed in the construction materials of this house.
How many stones
Superb!
I love it
Me encanta! Asombroso trabajo, una cuestión. ¿Los block no llevan castillos ahogados ¿verdad?. Solo se les agrega un contrapeso para que eel block quede pegado en el angulo deseado? Gracias de antemano!
Thanks for your innovation, hard work and service to the poor and needy. I am in West Africa and want to learn how to construct such homes. Can you give links where I can learn how to construct these houses? It will be highly appreciated.
Resistência com baixo custo muito bom mesmo.

Hello, i would love to build a dome house just like the one in the video, where can i get the plans blueprints and list of materials. Thank you.
Did you use spray foam, balsat rebar, and shotcrete to make it well insulated from the elements from the inside? And the balsat rebar and shotcrete will make it last for up to 500-1,000 years with the proper maintenance.
👍👍👍
👍from Russia!!!!
Brian, that is a very cool build. It looks great too. How long did it take start to finish? Also, what kind of climate is this in. Thx.
70 days (including much of the digging). Tropical with lots of rain.
I saw some black pvc pipes on the roof, im assume they for electrical conduits? and not support?
Was there any metal rebarb on the roof?
Loojs like namekian houses
Boy, would I ever want to have some reinforcement of the walls.
It might be a good idea. Certainly, though, this worked well. And, in traditional domes (many, many years ago) there wasn't rebar either.
Iam Tica too.
How does the natural air conditioning work? Is it open around the top under the plexiglass?
I did some maths, and looked into the cost of concrete brick in my area. The bricks for a 30' diameter dome would only cost $2,000. Not bad for a house. I could certainly see it only costing the quoted $7,000.
There is an opening at the top so air can flow freely from the inside. As well, the shape of the dome aids in a suction being created by wind flowing over the top.
Great job man. at 0:33 secs I see many bootles in wall. What the finality?
The bottles are, simply, counterweights to hold the bottles in place until the course is finished and the blocks are held in place by their weight, etc.
@@bryanbutler6326 then, theres no steel between the holes of the blocks ?
Im trying to think up a way to make long-lasting low or no maintenance skylights. I like what you did there, but the plexiglass will need to be replaced i Imagine every so often. Any ideas on a solution that will last as long as possible. Dosent need to look pretty per se, just last long.
Ferro cement would work nicely
hi bryan . really nice build . do you have any plans for the build . would also like to know what the diameters of the rooms are.
Sorry for the delay. Diameters of the big rooms are 14' and the smaller room 12'.
sorry for not answering. Send me an email to BwanaBB@yahoo.ca
This is great house I need blueprint for dome if is possible
Wondering how you keep ground and rainwater out off the construction. No sealing?
Good question. The roof is covered with a sealant and the sidewalk around the building is constructed to take the water off and away. Seems to work ... still dry several years later.
Well Done my friend.Would you consider COMMING to Costa Rica for a project.Short term or long term?And have you made any changes since this video was made?
Certainly. I have done lots of study and thinking since this was made. On the one hand, it is proving to be great as it is. On the other, I have been looking at a way to make domes with adobe ... smaller individual domes but cheaper and able to be made with local materials. As well, I have been studying vaults ... (see Nubian Vault Construction). These would allow a traditional "square" base with a solid roof (I think ferro-cement would work very well). Contact me on facebook and I can send you information.
Bryan Butler Could you please link us your facebook profile to get the details?
What country was build this amazing domes, I need to contact them, if they're central American dudes it'll better for my project? Please contact to me!
Cuál es la medida de esos bloques
If you close the holes and use blast doors... can this withstand a nuclear fallout?
no idea. sorry.
Mr Bryan, is there any possibility of obtaining the plans. Certainly a worthy project to pass on to people in need safe low-cost secure housing.
send me an email or look me up on facebook
Haré una casa así
Can I get something like that in Florida?
quisira saber los diseños para haser un domo en colombia hay mas videos
Quiero una casa así, hay algún contacto de quienes construyeron esta casa
Bryan Butler How y’all is it?
What are dimensions
Сколка стоит
J'aimerais bien faire un tel projet pour me loger.
ماشاءالله
I need the blue print to build in the mounting costa rica . how much
Send me an email ... or look me up on facebook and I will send stuff to you
I have been away from this site for a long time. The home is still being used. If you want to contact me for more information write: bwanabb@yahoo.ca
Quisiera saber las medidas de los domos
Hola amigo pudo coseguir algun boceto o plano de los domos?
Please reply
Hola I am moving call me.
Necesito el número de albañil amigo gracias
How do you get the dome shape?
It is a simple process - an arm set on a central post is used to measure each block. As you go up, the arm naturally follows the curve (arch.)
Bryan Butler
So the bricks aren’t different shapes then?
With no keystone, why doesn’t it collapse inwards?
@@fainitesbarley2245 The compression of each course acts in the same manner as a keystone. So, in a way, each block acts as a keystone. Towards the top, there is some shaping of the blocks to make them fit the angle of the slope.
Bryan Butler
Thanks Bryan.

weird
Cost was about $7,000 USD ... labour and materials (not cost of land).
Wow ! Things are so cheap in Honduras. If I could, I would let hondurian make my house and then ship it to me.
In Switzerland, we have a society building this type of house, basic price wihout land starts at 280'000$.
tendrás algún plano????
What is the height you started the dome roof curvature? Would like good standing room.
Yo haria un domo solo mas grande con todas las diviciones
There are other dome styles, such as the birdcage dome, which would work for that. The smaller domes allow a family to build one room at a time as they have the money and time. It is also easier for small DIY construction.
