Made with Xara Web Designer Dome School of America is a joint effort, put together and hosted by Dan Sutterfield of Sutterfield Services L.L.C. and David Holmes of Cozy Spray Foam Enterprises. Dome School of America is without  question the most advanced concrete dome construction course offered in this country. This course is not a sneak preview into dome building. We are offering a full blown experience from A to Z. Our course includes: *  Full 12 days of construction experience and technical training (class size from 8 to 12) *  Design and construction of air forms (for the do-it-yourselfer) *  Full construction experience of 346 sq. ft. transportable dome structure made of      light wt. shotcrete including:                           *  Making a fabric form                                                                                                                                                            *  Construction of a dome base with floor                           *  Full construction of dome unit with trowled and sponge floated interior                            *  Attachment of molded overhangs                           *  Textured finishing of exterior of structure *  Low Slump shotcreting instruction (hands on) utilizing an S-Tube hydraulic concrete pump *  Utilization of new technology air forming system that is far more compatible and repairable     than any previous system offered *  Full exposure to 3 step shotcrete system of preshell, embedding rebar in one pass and a finish         coat that is troweled and sponge floated when installed (without visual rebar lines when done) *  Experience building your own 2 wire rebar hangers *  In depth discussion and technology presentation on concrete pumps *  Advanced instruction on concrete pumping, working with redi-mix plants and understanding     processes and techniques to allow you to pump  low  slump concrete (0 to 2.75 inch slump).

The most notable of his accomplishments was the home he built for Paul and Barberra Stitt of Manitowoc, Wisconsin.  David Holmes has 8 years experience in the dome building industry both in building new domes and repairing dome exteriors on storage domes. In the last few years he has built the project referred to as “Lockesland” owned by Nina Pearlmutter of Kennebunkport, Maine. The challenges of dome building have caused both Dan and David to look for answers and improvements. This dome building school is a compilation and a sharing of these discoveries. From new technology fabric forms to molded overhangs, this schooling will more than pay back your investment in the first dome that you build. Hope to see you at the training!            The Stitt Home Lockesland owned by Nina Pearlmutter and Orrin Frink Click Here to return to home page of concrete-domes.com Scheduled Schools: 2011 school dates yet to set For Registration: Call 218-435-2980 or email us at cozyfoamholmes@gmail.com or call Dan Sutterfield’s cell phone  573-465-2356 or email domedan@hotmail.com For Registration: Call 218-435-2980 or email us at cozyfoamholmes@gmail.com or call Dan Sutterfield’s cell phone  573-465-2356 or email domedan@hotmail.com TM TM
