Bridge Concepts
Cable
Stay Bridge Design
A
cable-stayed bridge is a bridge that consists of one or more columns (normally
referred to as towers or pylons), with cables supporting the bridge deck.
Truss
Bridge Design
A truss bridge
is a bridge composed of connected elements (typically straight) which may be
stressed from tension, compression, or sometimes both in response to dynamic
loads. Truss bridges are one of the oldest types of modern bridges.
Arch
Bridge Design
An arch
bridge is a bridge with abutments at each end shaped as a curved arch. Arch
bridges work by transferring the weight of the bridge and its loads partially
into a horizontal thrust restrained by the abutments at either side.
Mechanical Functions
Pulley
A pulley is a
wheel on an axle that is designed to support movement of a cable or belt along
its circumference. Pulleys are used in a variety of ways to lift loads, apply
forces, and to transmit power.
