What advantages are there – over a cable-stayed bridge?
• Since the roadway is not forced to sustain large compression forces, it can be made lighter and cheaper than in a classical cable-stayed bridge. • These bridges should scale to cover large spans much better than a normal cable-stayed bridge would. In most cases, this type of bridge can be expected to offer performance superior to a classical cable-stayed bridge.
