Geodesic Dome Calculator
Our geodesic dome calculator will calculate the length and number of struts for 2V, 3V, and 4V geodesic domes based on the specified radius. It's a useful tool for planning the size of your dome.
Numbers must be entered in decimal format, IE 10.5 feet, not 10 feet 6 inches.
Use the pulldown menu to choose your units.
Do not include units in the
number field or no calculations will be returned.
