Abstract

•A series of shaking table tests based on a platform canopy were conducted.•A finite-element model of the prototype structure was established.•The cumulative damage effect was considered using the ABAQUS User Subroutines.•Three types of lateral bracings were chose to analyze the effect on failure mode.•The results obtained from the FEM are compared with the experimental measurements.
