The characteristics of structural behavior for a cable dome shows a strong nonlinearity and very sensitive by the initial imperfection. The instability phenomenon of Geiger-type cable dome structure is generated due to the in-plane twisting near the critical load level. In this study, therefore, the effect of bracing reinforcement resisting to the in-plane twisting is investigated for the Geiger-type model reinforced by bracing. The effect of initial imperfection is also studied because the structural instability phenomenon of shell-like structure is very sensitive according to the initial condition.
