Two-dome cylindrical shells, spheres or two-dome conical shells made of fiber reinforced polymer materials by using the filament winding method are applied popularly in fields. The structure of the two-dome conical shell is the general structure of the cylindrical shell and sphere. Structural models and winding process of the cylindrical shell and sphere have been studied before. For composite conical shells, the winding condition at the equator between the dome and cone is changed, and moreover, since having the conical angle, the non-slippage condition of fibers when winding hoop layers must be controlled, thus, the mathematical model for designing the structure of shell is changed that should be investigated. for that reason, the mathematical model for designing the geodesic wound composite conical shell will be built. The studied results will be the basis for true structure design and product-winding process.
