Also the dome should touch the reference plane in (and only in) that point.<br /> Not shown here:<br /> Form finding of the cantilever curves (sub curves of catenaries) and the catenary arches between two curves. This was also done with Galapagos (create catenary -&gt; change it until it fits and touches the reference roof plane)
