The use of the yurt dates to the 3rd millennium B.C. It was mentioned by the "Father of History" Herodotus, as well as by famous travellers Zemarh, Plano Carpini, Guillaume Rubruk, Ibn-Batuta and many others. The making of yurta and dombra was included in the representative list of non-material historical possessions of people. Today, there is a renewed interest in the construction of yurt dome structures suitable for the modern world. However, the techniques of doing them are not well known.In this context, this research examines the techniques of making dome structures for modern use by the structural mechanic method through the architectonics and design of central cyclic yurts.It explores the structural principles conceptualized and presents the ways to do so. It involves a two-story version of the yurt as a novel design. For instance, the yurt's second floor's primary structural components have been upgraded.The solution proposed allows to lower the dome of the yurt up to 0.8 m in winter. However, when it is cold and in case of expected strong steppe winds, the total diameter of the yurt remains the same. The number of uyks has also been reduced by the reduction of the length of two uyks out of three located next to each other, i.e., short side uyks are hinged to the main uyks located between kerege and shanyrak. This solution provides an economy of materials and creates space for the anchors during the movement of the shanyrak.
