Dome Formwork scaffolding

In what way can I design the formwork scaffolding of a dome. So first I have to design a reinforced concrete dome and draw my steel scaffolding underneath. ? However, in this case, the loads are only transferred to the edges in the reinforced concrete dome. Therefore, the pier in the middle region has no effect. If I convert the dome area to square and calculate the load and design it like a normal formwork scaffolding, will I have made a correct modeling?
 
In a reinforced concrete dome, the load transfer you mentioned will not occur until the concrete gets its strength. So I think your starting point is wrong from the beginning. If you construct the vertical loads correctly and design the formwork scaffolding, I am sure there will be no problem. I remember seeing a lot of pictures on the internet about the dome formwork scaffolding. I think it would be better if you start from a production made. Good work.
