Master's Thesis from the year 2011 in the subject Engineering - Civil Engineering, grade: 10, , language: English, abstract: In the present study, the failure of cable stayed bridge across Chambal River (Kota) will be discussed. The causes of its collapse and detail study of the cable stayed bridge cross Chambal River will be done. The static and dynamic modeling of cable stayed bridge is also done. At the end, the measure to repair and rehabilitation cable stayed is discussed.Cable stayed bridge has become one of the most frequently used bridge system throughout the world because of their aesthetic appeal, structural efficiency, enhanced stiffness compared with suspension bridge, ease of construction and small size of substructure. Over past 40 years, rapid developments have been made on modern cable stayed bridge. With main span length increasing , more shallow and slender stiffness girders used in modern cable stayed bridge, the safety of whole bridge under service loading and environmental dynamic loading such as impact , wind and earthquake loadings , presents increasingly important concern in design , construction and serviceIn India the first cable stayed bridge was AKKAR BRIDGE, SIKKIM (1985) Constructed by Gammon India limited. The other cable stayed bridge are Vidhya sagar Setu (1992) Kolkata, Bandra - worli sea link (Mumbai), Cable stayed bridge across Chambal river (Kota) etc.
