The passenger boarding bridge which provides a safe and comfort passenger pathway between an airplane and airport terminal gate is one of the apron equipment. This study investigates the effect of the lift column layout design on structural strength of the passenger boarding bridge by using finite element method, comparing deflection and stress. The overlapped zone of the tunnel frame A and B occurred at the maximum stress. The results of this research show that the lift column layout design is closely the value of the maximum stress.
