Abstract

The authors initially point out that a great number of parameters are responsible for the shaping of cable stay bridges. Principal requirements for the shaping of beams, stay cables and pylons are explained. Although this arrangement is necessary for clarity reasons, the analysis must also take into account a strong interaction between principal load-bearing structural elements. In addition, principal properties of Jarun bridge are explained in the light of guidelines for the shaping of cable stay bridges, and an accent is placed on specific features of this bridge.
