ABSTRACT: Composite cable-stayed bridges are elegant and efficient solutions. Today, they are the most
adopted solution for 400–600 m span range. Design developments of composite cable-stayed decks are resumed.
Particular reference is made to medium-span road and railroad composite decks and to truss decks. Slenderness
of the decks, material quantities of stays cables and decks are referred to. Future trends of composite cable-
stayed bridges are at last discussed. Particular reference is made to the prospective developments in the field of
structural materials, cables, and bridge concepts.

The use of steel grades S420 and S460 has much
increased in recent years. New steels allow the design
of steel girders, floor-beams and stay anchors more
compact and with thinner plates. However, the use of
these steels has no significant advantage for fatigue
resistance. The recent introduction of even higher steel
grades in bridge construction, such as the S690 and
S700, may be explored in the future.20
