heal.abstract	In this paper, a simple model for studying the dynamic response of multi-span steel bridges on pylons with different heights, subjected to the action of earthquake motion acting in parallel to deck and varying spatially is presented. The analysis is carried out with the use of modal analysis technique while the solution of the gathered integral-differential equations is obtained using the successive approximations technique. It has been found that the piers' height and the quality of the foundation soil are affecting significantly the dynamical behavior of such bridges. Illustrative examples are presented and useful conclusions are gathered. © 2010 Taylor & Francis Group, London.	en
