Rana Handicrafts International continues its mission to provide world-class architectural elements to religious institutions. Our latest project took us to Village Todarpur in the Hoshiarpur District of Punjab, where we successfully installed a stunning Golden Gumbad.
Technical Excellence The dome stands 15 feet tall with a 9 feet diameter. To ensure longevity against the harsh Punjab weather, we used multilayered high-quality silicon fiber. The structure is reinforced with a Mild Steel (MS) frame, providing the perfect balance of lightweight design and structural strength.
Why Choose Our Silicon Fiber Domes?
-
Weatherproof: Resistant to rain, heat, and UV rays.
-
Lightweight: Reduces the load on the building structure compared to concrete.
-
Low Maintenance: The golden finish stays vibrant for years if painted every 4-5 years and cleaning is required every month.
We are honored to contribute to the beauty of the Gurdwara Sahib in Todarpur.
Rana Handicrafts International is proud to announce the successful completion and installation of a magnificent 15-foot Golden Gumbad (Dome) at Gurdwara Sahib, Village Todarpur, located in the Hoshiarpur District of Punjab. This project stands as a testament to our commitment to blending traditional Sikh architectural aesthetics with cutting-edge material science.
Project Overview & Architectural Brilliance
The Gurdwara Sahib in Todarpur now features a centerpiece that commands attention from miles away. This isn't just an installation; it is a structural upgrade that enhances the spiritual skyline of the village.
-
Dimensions: Standing at a towering 15 feet in height with a wide 9-foot diameter base, the dome provides a perfect, symmetrical silhouette to the Gurdwara structure.
-
Design Philosophy: The dome features the classic "Phul" (petal) design at the base, transitioning into a smooth, elegant curve that leads to a multi-tiered Kalash and Khanda finial, symbolizing chardi kala (eternal optimism).
Engineering & Technical Excellence
At Rana Handicrafts, we believe that beauty must be backed by strength. The Todarpur project utilized our signature Multilayered High-Quality Silicon Fiber technology.
-
Reinforced MS Frame Structure: Internally, the dome is supported by a heavy-duty Mild Steel (MS) framework. This skeleton ensures the dome remains aerodynamically stable against high wind pressures common during Punjab’s monsoon and storm seasons.
-
Multilayered Silicon Fiber Skin: The outer shell is crafted from multiple layers of premium silicon fiber. Unlike traditional Gumbads made of concrete or heavy metals, our fiber technology offers:
-
Zero Rust Risk: Being non-metallic on the outside, it is immune to corrosion.
-
Thermal Insulation: It does not absorb heat like metal or concrete, keeping the structure below cooler.
-
-
The Golden Finish: We use a specialized, high-grade golden pigment that is UV-resistant. This ensures that the "Sone-marga" (gold-like) glow does not fade or peel under the intense Indian sun.
