Review on the Impact of Elements Used During Bridge Construction

Abstract

The requirement of long span bridge is increase with development of infrastructure facility in every nation. Long span bridge could be achieved with use of high strength materials and innovative techniques for analysis of bridge. Generally, cable-supported bridges comprise both suspension and cable-stayed bridges. Cable-supported bridges are very flexible in behavior. These flexible systems are susceptible to the dynamic effects of wind and earthquake loads. The cable-stayed bridge could provide more rigidity due to the presence of tensed cable stays as a force resistance element.
