Cable Supported Bridges for Long to Superlong Spans
Since ages, bridges are pivotal and maintained to be the lifeline in the area transportation and allied services; beaming in demand of long to superlong bridges owing to modernization, globalization and increased population; leading to erection of numerous fascinating, mesmerizing bridges. For optimization, owing to their structural behaviour, cable supported bridges have been preferred nomenclatured as cable-stayed type of bridges (CSBs), suspension type of bridges (SBs), composite bridges (CBs), Cable-stayed-suspension hybrid bridges (CSSHBs). CSSHB should inherently be preferred owing to the fact that it incorporates advantages of both CSBs and SBs for bridges having longer spans. The analysis of bridges is highly needed, as its failures may/can be catastrophic, thereby generating necessity to conceptualize the basic mechanism of loading and/or failures and incorporate them in the design/analysis—the possible reason(s) for such failures and possible remedial measures thereon. Some of the possible profile/arrangement/system of the cable supported bridges for very long-span are illustrated in this paper; wherein, models are prepared has using SAP2000 software. This study includes the response of the bridge(s) modelled (towards MTHA), with variation in cable system is adopted.
