Leaning tower supports stayed Truss span
Site geology dictated asymmetrical support; main span is supported and laterally braced at tower by crossbeam; tower itself is held 20° from vertical by two backstay cables anchored in abutment; abutment in turn is anchored by 20 post-tensioned, high-tensile, steel cables concreted into rock 70 ft below ground; procedures for lifting and setting truss sections.
