cable-stayed bridge
A cable-stayed bridge is a type of bridge that uses tall vertical towers, called pylons, to support the bridge deck. Instead of using traditional cables hanging down, cables are slanted from the pylons to hold up the deck, forming a fan-like pattern. This design allows for a strong and stable structure while minimizing the use of materials. Cable-stayed bridges can span long distances and are often used for roadways and railways. Their modern appearance and efficiency make them popular for various infrastructure projects around the world.
