A Simplified Method of Analyzing Suspension Bridges
A rational method of analysis for the design of suspension bridges is presented in this paper. The proposed method gives simple and explicit equations of the horizontal tension in a cable and a direct method of determining maximum moments, shears, deflections, and slopes in the stiffening trusses. A slide rule may be used in all computations. The tiresome cut-and-try processes inherent in the existing methods are avoided.
