        abstract = {Rapid urbanization and the continuous increase in vehicular traffic have created major congestion problems in urban corridors across metropolitan cities. To address these challenges, multi-level flyovers have become an important solution for improving traffic movement and reducing travel delays in densely populated areas. Among various structural components of flyovers, the pier system plays a significant role in determining the stability, strength, and overall performance of the structure. This review paper presents a detailed study on the structural behavior of three-deck flyovers with different pier configurations such as circular, rectangular, and portal piers. The paper reviews previous research related to multi-level flyovers, pier geometry, and structural analysis carried out using software such as STAAD. Ro under different loading conditions including dead load, live load, wind load, and seismic load. The comparative findings from earlier studies indicate that pier shape directly affects important structural parameters such as bending moment, shear force, axial load, displacement, stiffness, and base reaction. Different pier configurations show varying behavior under lateral and vertical loads, influencing both safety and economy of the flyover structure.},
