Domes are strong due to their geometric shape, which distributes stress evenly across the structure. The curvature of a dome allows it to efficiently handle loads, including gravity and wind forces, by channeling them down to the foundation. Additionally, the use of materials that can withstand compression, like concrete or stone, enhances their strength and stability. This design also minimizes the amount of material needed for construction, making domes both strong and resource-efficient.
