Core offering

Monolithic Constructors plans, designs, and constructs Monolithic Domes — thin-shell concrete structures built by inflating an Airform membrane, applying polyurethane foam and steel rebar, and then spraying shotcrete to create a permanent dome. The company also manufactures Airforms, specialty fabric products, and dome construction equipment, and provides feasibility studies, restoration, and dome-building training workshops. Projects span homes, schools, churches, sports facilities, bulk and cold storages, and industrial fabric forms.

Product overview

Monolithic Constructors is a manufacturing, construction, and design firm specializing in Monolithic Dome technology — thin-shell concrete structures built with polyurethane foam, steel rebar, and concrete using an Airform membrane inflation process. The company's portfolio centers on Monolithic Dome construction services, supported by three interconnected product lines: (1) Airforms and Specialty Fabric Forms manufactured in their 14,000 sq ft Texas plant using RF welding technology; (2) Construction Equipment including portable concrete mixers, concrete pumps, inflators, scaffolding systems, and Paxis rotating scaffold bases; and (3) Services encompassing feasibility studies, the semiannual Monolithic Dome Builders Workshop training program, dome restoration and coating, construction management, polyurethane foam application, and custom concrete fences. The company also produces custom disaster-resistant gazebos and specialty textile products including methane digester covers, condensate ceilings, and fabric water tanks.

Products and services

• Monolithic Dome Construction Thin-shell concrete dome structures constructed with polyurethane foam, steel rebar, and concrete using an inflated Airform membrane; used as homes, schools, safe rooms, gymnasiums, bulk storages, churches, and commercial buildings. The dome shape provides disaster resistance, energy efficiency (50%+ savings vs conventional structures), and free-span column-free interiors.
• Monolithic Dome Airforms PVC-coated fabric membrane forms manufactured to precise size and shape for inflating and shaping Monolithic Domes during construction; the Airform serves as the permanent roofing membrane when the dome is finished. Sizes built using the patented Transverse Airform patterning technology have reached 182-foot diameter.
• Specialty Fabric Forms Custom textile products manufactured using RF welding technology, including methane digester covers, condensate ceilings, compost covers, grain covers, athletic tents, fabric water tanks, airformed culverts, tunnels, pipes, and event tents. Sold directly from the Italy, Texas manufacturing plant.
• Dome Construction Equipment Portfolio of construction equipment for Monolithic Dome building, including portable concrete mixers, concrete pumps, inflators (blower fans for Airform inflation), scaffolding systems and Paxis rotating scaffold bases, concrete additives, Airform primer, and airlock construction kits. Sold via the Monolithic Marketplace e-commerce storefront.
• Residential and Commercial Feasibility Studies Expert evaluation services assessing the feasibility of Monolithic Dome projects for residential and commercial applications, including free evaluations for safe rooms, community shelters, storages, churches, sports facilities, and schools. Coordinated with the Monolithic Dome Institute.
• Monolithic Dome Builders Workshop Semiannual training program combining classroom instruction with hands-on construction of a real Monolithic Dome, taught by industry experts. Hosted at the Monolithic Research Park in Italy, Texas and coordinated with the Monolithic Dome Institute.
• Dome Restoration and Coating Services Repair, restoration, and coating services for existing Monolithic Domes or other concrete domes, including exterior covering application and consulting.
• Construction Management Services On-site construction management and project supervision services for Monolithic Dome projects, including full project oversight.
• Polyurethane Foam Application Expert crews spray polyurethane foam for conventional and dome construction projects, including commercial roofing and residential insulation applications.
• Concrete Fences and Retaining Walls Market, engineering, and construction of concrete fences and retaining walls using Monolithic technology.
• Custom Gazebos Custom, disaster-resistant gazebos for backyard installations.
