Hello folks,
after an long break again a posting from my side.....
I am evaluating some stuff concerning "golden ratio" (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_ratio) and believe to remember, that anywhere it was mentioned, that Yurt proportions meet this ratio too.
So I played a little bit around but I came to the conclusion, that Yurts with usual measures don´t fulfill the golden ratio requirements.
But maybe I have used wrong parameters for my calculations.....
Below my results and if you have input I am happy to read!
I used metric system and for easier calculations, a Yurt size of 10 meters (approx. 32 ft).
Sidewall height: 190 cm
The calculations was made with the help of this website:

Test 1 - standard diameter/height ratio with an roof angle of 30°:
Test 2 - Golden ratio for diameter/height - brought as result an roof angle of nearly 43°:
See now the both results with the golden ratio rectangle measure (blue/red in the background) as comparison:
As you can recognize:
Fulfilling the golden ratio requirements (Test 2) has ugly impacts....
What do you mean?
