Please describe in detail your proposed galvanized steel roof on a dome.
Oh... one thing I didn't mention earlier, that I'm sure you already know, but I'll throw it in here anyway.
I mentioned the importance of a durable waterproof layer, and the need for appropriate vapor barriers, but more important than all of that is BUILDING ON HIGH GROUND.
When it comes to hurricanes, storm surge and flood damage are the biggest enemy.
Even if you don't anticipate floods on your land, you still want to build any structure on a foundation that extends above the surrounding terrain.
Now that I have stated the incredibly obvious, please go ahead and describe this galvanized steel dome roof you have in mind.
