Abstract
The INO340 enclosure design follows recent developments in enclosure and dome design which aims at minimum enclosed air with suitable temperature and humidity control as well as an efficient air flushing to reduce the mirror seeing. The INO340 enclosure performance indicates a quality design and construction which meets the desired specifications. This report will review the design details of INO340 enclosure building architecture and anatomy. It will also describe some back design philosophies that drove design details and construction of the enclosure. We briefly report on the development and installation of the dome.
