You are designing a dome house in the shape of a hemisphere with a 40.0-ft outside diameter.
1. How many square feet of stucco should be listed on the bill of materials as needed to
cover this home if 15% of it is windows and doors?
2. Find the volume, which is needed to calculate the heat pump size.
3. If the walls are 12 in. thick, what is the weight of this house used for the footing design?
Concrete weighs 148 Ib/ft³. Exclude the weight of the windows and doors.
4. Two coats of sealer are required to cover and seal the exposed external concrete.
If 1 gal covers 110 ft², how many gallons are required for the bill of materials?
