No they did not. The Romans made domes either with unreinforced concrete of in bricks. Geodesic domes are a modern invention.

What was the basis of a new approach to architecture that the Romans employed to build vaults and domes and span great spaces?
The basis of the new approach or the new material that enabled the Romans to expend their architecture into vaults and domes was the use of concrete.The basis of the new approach or the new material that enabled the Romans to expend their architecture into vaults and domes was the use of concrete.The basis of the new approach or the new material that enabled the Romans to expend their architecture into vaults and domes was the use of concrete.The basis of the new approach or the new material that enabled the Romans to expend their architecture into vaults and domes was the use of concrete.The basis of the new approach or the new material that enabled the Romans to expend their architecture into vaults and domes was the use of concrete.The basis of the new approach or the new material that enabled the Romans to expend their architecture into vaults and domes was the use of concrete.The basis of the new approach or the new material that enabled the Romans to expend their architecture into vaults and domes was the use of concrete.The basis of the new approach or the new material that enabled the Romans to expend their architecture into vaults and domes was the use of concrete.The basis of the new approach or the new material that enabled the Romans to expend their architecture into vaults and domes was the use of concrete.

What did Romans uniquely construct?
Romans used concrete, the arch and domes which lead to roads, aqueducts, coliseums, baths, and basilicas .
Did Romans invent domes?
Yes, they did. It was the Roman's invention of concrete that made the dome possible.
Why does Islamic architecture use domes and circular shapes?
In the early years of Islam, domes were associated with royalty. During the 16tjh-century, Islamic holy buildings began to be built with domes, to create a sense of heavenly transcendence.
Where did geodesic domes originate?
where did geodic domes come from.
Are all domes round?
Domes can be round, polygonal or Geodesic.
What are 3 famous geodesic domes?
Epcot, Climatron, and Montréal Biosphère
What type of architecural training did r buckminster fuller receive?

What special geometric forms were used to make the geodesic domes?
The polyhedron, upon which most geodesic domes are based, is the icosahedron. The icosahedron has 20 equilateral triangle faces. By subdividing the icosahedron face into smaller triangles, then "pushing" the triangle vertices outward (to the surface of a circumscribing sphere,) a more-complex triangulated polyhedron can be produced -- a "geodesic" sphere, or dome. By subdividing the icosahedron face into greater-and-greater numbers of smaller-and-smaller triangles, more complex geodesic spheres/domes are produced.
What is a real world example of a Geodesic dome?
The 'big ball' at Epcot in Orlando Florida, is a Geodesic sphere. The old dome-like playground equipment is based on the same structure as a geodesic dome. I've posted a couple of links about geodesic domes with some pictures.
Is geodesic domes stronger than round domes?
No, the strongest shape under gravity condition is the catenary dome. The strongest shape under pressure ( earth sheltered or water ) would be a sphere. Or an hemisphere. Which is still a way stronger than a geodesic. The geodesic has potential link for failure in each connections. It's might be easier to set up than a perfect hemisphere, but seriously, did you already see a geodesic dome in nature ? You might want to check ferrocement / monolithic domes if strength it the first issue.

How many equilateral triangles in a geodesic dome?
The answer varies depending on the exact type of geodesic dome you are using. A 2 frequency and 4 frequency geodesic domes use 20 equilateral triangles despite the two-frequency having many more faces than the 2 frequency where the 3 frequency geodesic dome (150 sided) uses none at all. The above calculations, however, are only common to a certain architectural model. Assuming the domes are built mathematically instead of according to architectural integrity, the number of equilateral triangles in a "pure" dome, a geodesic sphere, is exactly equal to the number of faces, by definition.
