Installing Geodome Watershed Insulation Umbrella

Dome and structures backfilled
The structure was carefully backfilled. Then the Insulation watershed umbrella was added.

Umbrella covered both dome and garage

The umbrella covered both the
dome and the garage.

Rebar was placed in the butterfly notches, which were then grouted with waterproof, expanding grout to bind the panels into a single solid structure.

At least a foot of fill was pushed by the bulldozer over the umbrella to spread out the load of the machinery so that the umbrella would not be damaged.
