Yeah, it does sound scary having that much soil above oneself. Though they have been even tested and can even resist earthquakes well. But I didn't go into the project with a well thought out planning, so I had to scrap the dome idea when it ended up like this

but flat top worked out well, blends in great, and I really didn't have enough time to devote to everything that needed to be done on the dome project. I didn't plan on building one this year, was last second type of deal. I was talking about earthbags to people, and they wanted to see me do one.

To Dam or not to dam

That isn't even a question
