Corpus Christi Catholic Church Begins Construction
Corpus Christi Catholic Church in Ferris, Texas inflated their new Monolithic Dome multipurpose facility on February 4, 2003. The dome measures 108 feet in diameter and 32 feet in height. The multipurpose dome is the first phase for the church and will be used for everything from religious formation classes to sporting events.
Father John Haugh, pastor of Corpus Christi, said the Monolithic Dome
building was significantly less expensive to build than a traditional
structure, while offering several major advantages.
"With low utility bills, there will be great savings," Father Haugh said. "We also plan to open the building to the community for use as a tornado shelter should the need arise."
Monolithic Construction Management of Italy, Texas is serving as a consultant on the project. Design Associates International of Dallas designed the facility.
