    Is it possible to get a flat pattern layout for a dome 32" OD x 16" height
    broken into 16 segments and let's say 14 ga sheet steel? How would I go
    about making this pattern?

    Thanks,

    Wouldn't you have to have each of the 16 segments come to a point. I
    would suggest allowing a flat at the top. You could create a 16 sided
    polygon for the center and draw your bends and use a miter flange to
    finish the job.
