Long span cable supported bridges - present technology and trends
The activity within the field of long-span cable supported bridges has never been larger than at the end of the 20th century. The technology is well advanced to cope with the present challenges but it is also approaching its limits so if the trend towards ever increasing spans continues into the next century, further developments are required to ensure that the bridges will be stable, durable and constructible.
