Sumario:Construction of large-scale structures has been considered as one of the human's main achievements.  With their suitable view and high economical aspects, High-strength steel cables have been developed for analysis and erection of cable-stayed bridges in light of high speed development in computer technology. This type of bridges, while providing different behavior due to cable flexibility, has been recognized as one of the most practical choices for mid to large span bridges. This paper studies the non-linear dynamic behavior of cable bridges and the effect of some parameters (such as cable arrangement and shape of pylon) on them. For this purpose, CSI Bridge software with the direct integration method of dynamic analysis has been used and the behavior of structure under different earthquake components has been analyzed for various conditions of cable arrangements and pylon shapes. Results indicate that the most suitable behavior would be for cable bridges with H-shape pylons arranged in series and also with A-shape pylons in radial arrangement.
