Discussion of 'Bibliography and Data on Cable-Stayed Bridges', by the Subcommittee on Cable-Stayed Bridges of the Committee on Long-Span Steel Bridges of the Committee on Metals of the Structural Division (Oct., 1977)

摘要

The writer would like to point out the existence of a very remarkable Spanish cable-stayed bridge built in 1925, wich is thus older than the first one recorded by the authors (and probably the pioneer in concrete-deck type). The Tempul Aqueduct was designed by the famous Professor Educardo Torroja. The deck is a concrete box girder sustained by two planes of 3 mm diam 37-wire double cables working at 27 kg/mm2.
