Super Insulated, Low-Cost, Disaster Proof Dome Homes "Gharonda"!

Entering the final stages of preparing the Low-Cost Shuttering for the Dome Home at National Agricultural Research Center, Chak Shahzad, Islamabad, Pakistan. This represents the last leg of a 5 year journey of discovery through trial and error. Efforts towards this end were initiated much earlier but received impetus after the 2005 EQ that devastated Hazara and AJ&K. Having lost 66 relatives from my Mother's family in Muzaffarabad and Mansera Districts, I went all out to find the solution.http://www.google.com.pk/
