No worries. I’ve was construction-adjacent as a youngster, maybe I need to locate and converse with some general contractors I worked with. Thanks anyway.
Tiny dome home looks great, but I’m not sure how doing it right would work with my realistic budget within a realistic time frame, since we’re in a weather race. For that cost, I could just move and get small place in a more climate-friendly area. The issue is my elderly parent is about 45 minutes away with good traffic flow and my child, partner and their business about an hour, and their partner’s parents, siblings and children. My child has been settled for about eight years with their significant other so I don’t look for it to be realistic to expect the whole family and family business to uproot and move, unless the realities of climate change become untenable, and that’s certainly a possibility. But if that timeline is shorter than we imagine, that may well occur. Thank you so much for a great idea, and for reminding me to have a plan B and C.
It would have to be better attached to its foundations than your average trailer park trailer.
I was thinking about that. 3/8x10 rebar?
That is more than I would be able to tell you, sorry. I know a little about a lot of things.

Use all-thread set in drilled holes with epoxy if you didn’t plan for that with a slab
Thanks so much! I’m just in the bright idea stages, looking for a plan, but you gave me a great idea, maybe for lift.
Steel frame construction with tstud sub structure and full insulation envelope clad in brick.
Or do a monolithic dome tiny house.
Both would be sturdy as hell and very energy efficient, which addresses climate change better than insulating a Home Depot shed.
