Abstract

Bridges can be categorised by span lengths, such as short-span, medium-span, long-span and super-long-span and also by type, such as girder bridges, arch bridges, cable-stayed bridges and suspension bridges. This paper studies how long a span for each of these four types of bridges can be.
