In previous research, an aluminum alloy honeycomb plate cylindrical reticulated shell structure was designed. The bearing capacity test and numerical analysis show that the numerical analysis model of honeycomb plate cylindrical reticulated shell structure is reliable. In this paper, the seismic performance of the honeycomb plate cylindrical reticulated shell structure was investigated by modal analysis and time-procedure analysis. The results show that the low-order vibration modes of the cylindrical reticulated shell structure are generally dominated by lateral translational, plane torsional or vertical vibration. The natural frequency of cylindrical reticulated shell structure with bottom plate is greater than that of cylindrical reticulated shell structure without bottom plate, which has more reasonable mass, stiffness distribution. The cylindrical reticulated shell structure with bottom plate has better seismic performance, and its deformation under rare earthquake meets the specification requirements.
