<br/><br/> Live load distribution factor is a key factor for designing and analyzing curved steel box- girder bridges . A 3-D finite element model is carried out for the analysis of the curved steel trapezoidal bridges , The parameters considered in the study were radius of curvature, girder spacing span length, slab thickness, girder longitudinal stiffness, girder torsional inertia, number of girders, and cross frame spacing
