2. List of longest cable-stayed bridge spans - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_longest_cable...

   The definition of cable-stayed bridge deck length used here is: A continuous part of the bridge deck that is supported only by stay-cables and pylons, or are free spans. This means that columns supporting the side span as for example found in Pont de Normandie , excludes most of the side span decks from the cable-stayed deck length.

3. Cable-stayed bridge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cable-stayed_bridge

   Øresund Bridge from Malmö to Copenhagen in Sweden and Denmark. A cable-stayed bridge has one or more towers (or pylons), from which cables support the bridge deck. A distinctive feature are the cables or stays, which run directly from the tower to the deck, normally forming a fan-like pattern or a series of parallel lines.

4. Suspension bridge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suspension_bridge

   In an underspanned suspension bridge, also called under-deck cable-stayed bridge, [21] the main cables hang entirely below the bridge deck, but are still anchored into the ground in a similar way to the conventional type. Very few bridges of this nature have been built, as the deck is inherently less stable than when suspended below the cables.

5. List of road–rail bridges - Wikipedia

   The world's heaviest and largest double deck vertical lift bridge. 4-lane road on upper deck, rail on lower deck (converted to trail). The lower deck was also paved so the bridge could be placed in an intermediate position to allow road traffic only. Minnesota.

6. Arch bridge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arch_bridge

   The area between the arch and the deck is known as the spandrel. If the spandrel is solid, usually the case in a masonry or stone arch bridge, the bridge is called a closed-spandrel deck arch bridge. If the deck is supported by a number of vertical columns rising from the arch, the bridge is known as an open-spandrel deck arch bridge.

7. Deck (bridge) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deck_(bridge)

   A grid deck uses beams and diaphragms as the supporting structure. The supporting system of a grid deck is analyzed using a grillage analysis. A slab deck is one where the deck is analyzed as a plate. If the slab has a stiffness that is different in two directions (at right angles), then the deck is known and analyzed as an orthotropic deck.
