Abstract:The long-span multi-pylon suspension bridge is the subject of growing interest. Under live load, the longitudinal deflection of the mid-pylon is an important control parameter for a multi-pylon suspension bridge design. It is important to establish a simplified method of calculating pylon deflection for the preliminary design and selection of a multi-pylon suspension bridge. Based on deflection theory and deformation compatibility condition, considering main cable horizontal constraints and the interaction amo… Show more
