ABSTRACT
Recent application of cable stressing for steel bridge structures which reduces cost of materials, eliminates cracks on concrete steel structures, minimizes fatigue in the steel structures and increases system redundancy, is gaining recognition in the U.S. Similar application of the cable-stressed steel design was adapted on Taiwan projects. This paper outlines the sdvantages of the cable-stressed steel structure, and the cable stressing theory and details. The benefits of using the developed method on actual project are explained.(AU)
