In this video I show you how I approach a circular wood deck / platform for geodesic domes, yurts, performance stage, porch, glamping, bell tent etc. I show why my design is superior in efficiency, ease of assembly and construction, versus more common yurt platform designs out there. It is an intuitive design utilizing a concentric, reciprocal framing pattern. The only downside is that once you're done you won't want to cover it up with flooring!
All components can be cut exactly the same, allowing you to pre cut components before heading to the build site. The girder beams, once assembled, can be used to pinpoint post locations without ever breaking out batter boards, string lines, or complicated math.
If you have any questions please feel free to ask in the comments.
Thanks,

This is so awesome , thanks for sharing, changes my whole approach from buying a kit off the internet to building one like this myself. THanks a ton!
It’s the only way to go!
This helpful information and guide line so help breaks it down in easy steps
So glad you finally came up on my feed. We live in a Pacific Domes 30' dome and man I wish I would have know about your site. We need to upgrade, obviously. Hoping to glean as much information as I can from you. Love our dome but seriously it isn't wood and it perspires pretty bad in the winter. Thank you for putting this out there!
Dude!!! This is awesome!
this was incredibly helpful. Thank you so much. Subscribed!
Great job I love your work keep it up thanks for sharing 👍
Brilliant 👍🏻
Tres interessant
For me a hexagon with a star of David in the middle. Supported on only three points of an equilateral triangle. If it goes out of level, just jack up or lawer one leg.
Cheers Y'all!
Likewise, friend! Thanks for stopping by :)
Myyyy pleasure! I see the work you are putting in ✌🏻@@trilliumdomes out there shining
I wonder if cross bracing like spokes on a wheel would make it even simpler and interlocking 🤔 cool concept
Thanks for sharing, really neat building style
No problem! Glad you enjoyed it :)
Awsome
Found you on Reddit. Just in case your curious about that sort of thing
Im building a platform for a 8 meter jurt. Do you have a sketch for that?
This looks so much better for a yurt deck plan then what I have been seeing. I looked for your deck plan on your website but didn't see any options/plans available. Am I just missing them?
They are included in the dome plans!
I would love a video on setting up a dome foundation for a greenhouse with a layer of crushed rock over landscaping fabric for drainage on the inside. Something to tie the dome down to the ground so Mother Nature doesn't blow it away in all her windy glory.
Got one coming that my will have a foundation just like that I will try to make a video for it!
@trilliumdomes link please...if you did this!
Can you make a deck pack on your website for people who already have a yurt or dome but need a deck for them? I also see you only have domes on the website and not yurts, and I need a yurt to make it through the extreme cold in winter where I am. I would have certainly purchased your deck plans or kit if you had them! And if you sold a yurt pack I might have gone for that too!
The deck plans are included with the dome plans and we have deck plans alone on our etsy shop!
I'm building a deck / platform for a 40ft / 12 meters 4 frequency Dome, do you have plans for that one?
This is awesome; do you make these for people? Not sure I could do this but you do give good instruction.
I want to see the dome on top. Thank-you. The way you build looks easy and practical not to mention I don't understand why domes aren't used more because of their superior strength against elements.
Yes I do! Yeah I should have put a photo of the dome that went on top of this one. I have some more stuff on my tik tok and instagrams about it.
Hi Johnny, I'm curious to find out what you are using for ground screws on your next project? I've been researching helical pile options for a while now. Would love to see what you are going to use for the 5000 lbs support rating for each screw.
Thanks,
Joshua
I found a company called Pylex that has a 5k lb rated helical pile. They seem to be available at most construction retailers in the US!
Hello!! I have a 5m (16.4 foot dome) and I am wondering if I am able to use this plan design to make my platform. These plans are for 15, 20, and 23 foot design. Would some extra deck around the dome be an issue for water getting under the dome if we built a 20 foot platform I guess is the question. I really appreciate the simplicity of this design and I hope to be able to use it. Thank you so much
Hey there! So it kind of depends on your climate as far as the water seeping in… I personally would want there to be as little overhang as possible for that reason.
If you get the plans let me know, I can give you an exact number to use to scale the plans to your exact size
@@trilliumdomes I really appreciate that. I was thinking the same thing. I am in New Brunswick and we have good winters here. I will reach out when I purchase the plans. It will be within the week. I cannot thank you enough.
This is amazing!
I built a 20' 4V dome out of 1"EMT in my backyard and need to build a deck. I live in Florida and was wondering if you could just set the bottom portion of deck on blocks instead of raising up high with posts?
This is great. Have you had an engineer sign off or stamp a set of plans, with this approach?
I haven’t had anything engineered but I follow span tables for the designation of timber sizes. You can always double up joists and increase the member heights if you’re concerned about span / loads!
Do you sell kits? I’m thinking about creating a glamping dome for Airbnb type stuff and love the idea of using wood the way you have.. Looks beautiful and would be very interested in letting the first be one by you. .
I do but I’m booked out for the rest of of the year pretty much!
This is great! does it fit the Zome plans on your website
The acorn sauna zome has deck plans included. The 16’ dome just has a base layout. While you certainly could put the zome on the dome base, if you wanna perfect fit it would be wise to do one specifically for that. Some folks like the deck to be a bit bigger though
If you were going to use SIPs for your yurt floor/base, would you be able to set them directly on top of the pentagon, or would it need more support?
it depends on the structural ration of the sip and how far its able to cantilever without bowing
love videos dude. Tell me this, how do you think they'd do in places where there's lots of snow? Couple of years ago my area got 864.7cm of snow over the winter period.
Yep they do amazing in snow. I’ve had domes completely buried. Geodesic domes are incredibly strong
@@trilliumdomes music t.o my ears buddy. I'm playing with an idea of making a couple to keep horses in. It'll be a few years away before I get to it but really like this idea for the future. Thanks and all the best!
@@DrSpud horse dome! I love it. Keep me posted
Can you elaborate on the helicoil you are using to set the posts in the ground? I've seen those in the past but normally they are set with a skidsteer and put in the ground 8ft with like 32,000 psi force.
there are lots of options for putting them in by hand as well!
I really like what you are doing, the Pentagon base would work well with ICFs for a basement for all the home mechanical needs on a hillside build.
Do you sell a 8m/26foot deck structure cut list?
Yes it comes with the 26' dome plans on my website or standalone on my etsy page
Okay, I really like designs and content in general offered here.. however, I don't think the traditional plans are complicated, or hard. As an essentially novice builder I was able to build the traditional 30ft design quite easily, although yes it took time to make all the cuts
Well the other advantage is I think this method takes less time on site. Glad you were able to get your done successfully!
Do you have plans for a 16' base for a yurt?
I've got deck plans that come with my 16' zome that is pretty similar to this design. All you'd have to do is cut the sheathing into a circle on top of it 🤙
@@johnnybayles7412 thank you!
No deck plans on the website ? 😢
They all come with the dome and zome plans now!
@johnnybayles7412 hey Johnny and I just wanted to build the deck (purchase) before the dome - stages- - I get overwhelmed
@@marshallloring2956 well it's all included in the same package
