The paper presents the response of two geodesic domes under seismic excitations. The structures subjected to seismic analysis were created by two different methods of subdividing spherical triangles (the original octahedron face), as proposed by Fuliński. These structures are characterised by the similar number of elements. The structures are made of steel, which is a material that undoubtedly gives lightness to structures and allows large spans. Designing steel domes is currently a challenge for constructors, as well as architects, who take into account their aesthetic considerations. The analysis was carried out using the finite element method of the numerical program. The two designed domes were analysed using four different seismic excitations. The analysis shows what influence particular earthquakes have on the geodesic dome structures by two different methods. The study analysed the maximum displacements, axial forces, velocities, and accelerations of the designed domes. In addition, the Time History method was used for the analysis, which enabled the analysis of the structure in the time domain. The study will be helpful in designing new structures in seismic areas and in assessing the strength of various geodesic dome structures under seismic excitation.
