👉 Hanging engineering, also known as suspension or cable-stayed engineering, is a structural design approach used to support large-span structures like bridges and buildings. It involves suspending one or more cables directly from tall towers to the deck or supporting elements, creating a web-like structure that distributes loads efficiently. This method allows for longer spans and more flexible design options compared to traditional methods like arches or beams, while also providing aesthetic appeal. The cables are typically tensioned with high-strength materials, and the system is engineered to handle various loads, including dead loads (weight of the structure itself), live loads (traffic, wind), and environmental forces. The precision in the design and construction of these cables and their anchoring points is crucial for ensuring the stability and longevity of hanging structures.
