Closing the gap towards super-long suspension bridges using computational morphogenesis

Girder design for suspension bridges has remained largely unchanged for the past 60 years. Here, the authors present a design resulting in weight savings in excess of 28% while maintaining manufacturability, thus closing the gap towards super-long suspension bridges.
