Abstrakt: |
Cable stay bridges with more than two towers have a particular issue with the stability of the central tower or towers. This study explores the recent development of using stay cables that cross over in the mid- section of spans to stabilise the tower. This technique provides an exciting new way of adding stability to the towers. This study investigates how the technique could be expanded for used on future bridges. |
