Editing Cable-stayed bridge (section)

===Cable-stayed cradle-system bridge===

A cradle system carries the strands within the stays from the bridge deck to bridge deck, as a continuous element, eliminating anchorages in the pylons. Each epoxy-coated steel strand is carried inside the cradle in a one-inch (2.54&nbsp;cm) steel tube. Each strand acts independently, allowing for removal, inspection, and replacement of individual strands. The first two such bridges are the [[Penobscot Narrows Bridge]], completed in 2006, and the [[Veterans' Glass City Skyway]], completed in 2007.<ref>{{cite press release
