Abstract
Cable-stayed bridges have unique characteristics which require unique treatment in their analysis, design, and construction. This paper discusses some of these characteristics and presents proposed means of solving the associated problems. The paper discusses the nonlinear behaviour of the cable-stayed system, the load factors required for the analysis of that type of bridge, the manner of application of the loads, and the analysis under factored loads. The paper presents the results of the analysis of the ALRT cable-stayed bridge in Vancouver, Canada. Key words: cable-stayed, bridges, nonlinear, load factor, safety index.
