Do you have any thoughts on how you could integrate a roof rainwater catchment system with an earthbag dome structure? Have people done that before?
I did have some discussion with another person about the possibility of rainwater catchment on a dome, and had some specific suggestions. I was imagining a way of creating gutters that circled the dome at some level above the doors, possibly using large diameter black plastic pipe that was cut in half lengthwise and then attached to the dome and plastered into place with the exterior plaster, which would probably have to be a cement-based stucco to shed the water well enough. Some experimentation is certainly in order.
