Abstract
    Cable-stayed bridges are commonly used in modern bridge engineering for covering long spans. In some special cases, the designer is obliged to build such a bridge over an existing fault. Activation of this fault is possible to bring about a relative displacement or separation movement between two neighboring pylons of the bridge built on opposite sides of the fault. In this work, the effect of such a fault-induced pylon displacement on bridge
 
Key Words
    cable-stayed bridges; pylon displacement; fault; fault induced pylon movement.
