Cable stayed bridges are known for their good stability, It has been the most favorable use of structural design, for comparatively low designing and maintenance costs, and for effective structural characteristics. Therefore, this type of bridges are gaining popularity and are generally selected for long spans when compared to suspension bridges. A cable stayed bridge comprises of pylons with cables withstanding the weight of deck. There are different types of pylons i.e. ; H-type pylon, A-type pylon, inverted Y-type pylon, and diamond shaped pylon. In this paper the bridge design, model, and analyses for these different types of pylons is done using STAAD Pro. The comparison for three cases are done on the basis of shear force and bending moment in terms of self weight to obtain the most efficient type of pylon design. The results thus obtained are useful in limiting the drawbacks of other types of pylon.
