Abstract - Cable-bridges constructed in a more unique style for aesthetic and structural reasons. Curved cable bridges are not a common type of Highway Bridge in India, which are usually built at interchange which allows transportation of traffic from one highway to another. The current study presents the effect of horizontal curvature on the cable curved bridges as compared to straight cable-stayed bridges with changes in curvature. For this purpose, six models of cable- stayed bridge are selected with different radius of curvature. Linear time history analysis is performed on different combinations of models of varying curvature for the ground motion dataset. The outcomes are changes in displacement at different level of piers and deck and base shear.
Keywords: Bridges, Curvature, Seismic analysis, linear time history
