		Simple suspension bridges, for use by pedestrians and livestock, are still constructed in some places worldwide, based upon the ancient Inca rope bridge.
		The suspension cables must be securely anchored at each end of the bridge, since any load applied to the bridge is transformed into a tension in these main cables.
		Assuming a fairly negligible cable weight compared to the deck and vehicles being supported, a suspension bridge's main cables will form a parabola (very similar to a catenary, the form the unloaded cables take before the deck is added).
