Abstract

For railway bridges, in addition to traditional stress requirements such as structural strength, crack resistance, fatigue, and seismic resistance, the focus and challenges are also on the comfort and the sustaining of track geometry and position at different speeds. This chapter discusses the typical structural types of cable-supported bridges, so as to screen out the structural configurations of super-long-span railway suspension bridges that are more suitable for the mechanical characteristics of railway bridges.
