Book excerpt: Most suspension bridges in use today have cables composed of thousands of steel wires and most of these bridges are aging and carry high volumes of traffic. Deterioration of the elements of the suspension system is a problem, replacement of these elements can be expensive and problematic, while failure could be catastrophic.
