Abstract
Description
This image shows the concept of tension as shown in this suspension bridge. The suspension bridge bares vertical loads through the tension in the curved cables. The loads are transferred to the towers as well as their anchorage to the ground in order to bear the load of the structure itself, as well as the vehicles traveling on it.
