The highest point of the dome is 75 feet (23 metres) above the playing surface, which is almost seven storeys high.<br>
<br>
The insulated dome will maintain internal temperatures of 18°C.<br>
<br>
The dome is equipped with wind and snow sensors. In high winds, pressure will automatically increase for stabilization. During snow accumulation, sensors will adjust dome pressure and internal <BR>temperatures to allow snow to shed from the fabric.<br><br>
The dome automatically switches to a natural gas backup inflation pump during power outages.</span></div>Andyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08408980791673021797noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-106517201929532828.post-80659277410624716832014-11-14T05:00:00.000-05:002014-11-14T05:00:00.802-05:00Going, Going...
