Abstract
In the world of Civil Engineering, bridges are an example of structural art expressing how much the structures have evolved till present times. The concept and design of bridges has been evolved over the past years, having numerous amounts of different geometrical models and methods to construct bridges. As the development and innovation has reached so far, the concept of bridges has made a great impact on global infrastructure by creating sustainable, effective, and aesthetical bridges around the world. development of the finest aesthetical and sustainable designs for bridges which are known as Cable Stayed BridgesThe bridge form in which the weight of the deck is supported by a number of nearly straight diagonal cables in tension running directly to one or more vertical towers. The towers transfer the cable forces to the foundations through vertical compression. The tensile forces in the cables also put the deck into horizontal compression. Cable stayed bridges are the types of bridges those are best suited for connecting wide-span crossings. Construction of cable stayed bridge is widely promoted all over the world and construction of more than 600 cable stayed bridges are recorded till date. This type of bridge is preferred over any other type due to its possible construction to the indefinite length, availability of multiple design options with the possibility of symmetrical design and excellent strength. In this paper we shall discuss numerous case studies of the cable stayed bridges, compile all the beneficial data for most of the cable stayed bridges located in India.
Highlights
The introduction to cable stayed bridge was done along with that of the suspension bridge, due the initial collapse of the cable supported bridges those were constructed over the river Tweed (Europe) and Saale(Germany), at the beginning of 19th century, the concept was deserted
In the Recent Studies, Sam Li, a Senior Structural Engineering from Australia, gave a practical view on Static Analysis of Cable Stayed Bridges, which gave an illustration about the concept and design of bridges has been evolved over the past years, having numerous amounts of different geometrical models and methods to construct bridges
The inspection of structural details and design considerations of mentioned bridges in this research has developed an outcome which states that the functioning of cable stayed bridges has advanced with time, every bridge has its own unique design and a purpose to serve, the Signature Bridge in new Delhi is one of its kind, made with cutting edge technology and advance engineering tools which makes this bridge unique in its design, effective and escalates the service life of the structure
Summary
The introduction to cable stayed bridge was done along with that of the suspension bridge, due the initial collapse of the cable supported bridges those were constructed over the river Tweed (Europe) and Saale(Germany), at the beginning of 19th century, the concept was deserted. Cable Stayed Bridges mostly are taken in account for structures which requires large span and for aesthetical purposes [2]. The major reasons being the appealing aesthetics, less time taken for construction, efficiently using the materials for building structure, light appearance, and importantly increase in stiffness when compared to suspension bridges. Structure with these characteristics, are further characterized by a longlife period, large flexibility, light weight, and low structural damping [5,6]. The project was delayed numerous times due to many unsalaried payments and fishermen protests, which sums up to a total of INR 16.8 Billion project and was taken by Hindustan construction Company (HCC) to complete the project [10]
