Open full text 26 citations

Abstract

The notable developments in composite cable-stayed bridges over the past 50 years are presented. Reference is made to modern designs and construction methods of medium- and long-span highway decks and highway and railway composite truss decks. Future trends in composite cable-stayed bridges are discussed, referring especially to the prospect of future developments in the field of materials, cables and bridge designs.
