Structural Engineering: Bridges & Skyscrapers

The beam bridge is the simplest type of

bridge. It cannot span long distances

because it does not transfer moments

through its structural supports.

The truss bridge is made of struts

connected in triangular units to give

strength and support to the deck. The

truss can be above or below the deck.

The arch bridge dates back to ancient

times, when they were ﬁrst constructed of

stone blocks. Now, modern arch bridges

are made of concrete and metal. The deck

can be above, below, or even through the

middle of the arch.

A cantilever bridge uses cantilevers, which

are horizontal structures that project out

into space and are supported only at one

end. These bridges often use trusses to

support the cantilevers.

Like a suspension bridge, a cable-stayed

bridge is supported by cables. The cables

are connected directly to a central tower.

The deck of a suspension bridge is hung

from cables. The cables are suspended

from towers and anchored in the ground

or massive blocks.
