The Ultradome's weather-resistant surface and self-supporting, spherical structure provide a low-maintenance, protective roof with increased overhead space for water and wastewater-treatment plants. Two different designs are available: The lapped design relies on gravity to dispel water, eliminating the need for rubber sealing strips and caulking compounds; the Batten Design, which features enclosed batten seams, is particularly effective for odor containment, according to the manufacturer. For square or rectangular basins, the Ultraflote Geotruss provides many of the benefits of the Ultradome. Various options, including skylights, walkways and dormers, are available, as is turnkey installation by the manufacturer.
