This study is about the analysis structural behaviour in domes. Generally important to define the concept concerning the loss of stability and the method to determine the collapse load of the structure. As single layer dome show an important nonlinear behaviour with considerable softening. The purpose of this research is to analyse the several type of domes using Formian the programming language of formex algebra to evaluate the structural behaviour by import the formex file into finite element software LUSAS analysis programming. In this research, will included the comparison between five models of domes with the same span, rise, sweep angle, radius and central angle in term structure behaviour. The structure behaviour involve are maximum buckling, maximum starin and maximum stress. The type of dome that were used are a ribbed dome, two schwedler domes and two lamella domes with same specification. Various type of configuration pattern of dome will be used to analyse.
