Abstract
A building dome structure is formed by splicing long rafter sections into rafters and then lifting the rafters into positions extending meridionally between an upper compression ring and a lower tension ring. Then individual purlins are raised into positions between the adjacent rafters and attached thereto by purlin connecting means. Condensate channels along the rafter and purlin members collect condensation from glazing panels which are supported along their marginal edges by the rafters and purlins.
