    Dome Area Calculation

    Hi all,
    I have to calculate the surface area of a domed structure. Basic dimensions are 62m diameter x 18m high.
    In my case the dome is not a true spherical shape, but formed by 36nr radial curved beams with flat sheeting curved on the vertical only. My own approximate calculations show curved/actual = 10% extra which looks excessive. Any thoughts on where I’m going wrong?
