The following is the web link for Rion Cable Stayed Bridge.
If you read the article, it says among the novel features of the bridge is seismically isolated. Supported solely by cables, the deck makes no direct with pylons or abutments. In other words the cables are holding the deck. Can anyone explain the design or fundamental concept for the cables holding the deck? I would appreciate your response at your earliest convenience.
Thanks.
