    The document discusses the design of main structural cables used for two different maximum tensile loads. For a load of 464.4 kN, a Galfan coated steel cable with an open spiral strand and diameter of 24.4 mm is used, with a minimum breaking load of 537 kN. For a load of 10.3 kN, a Galfan coated steel cable with an open spiral strand and diameter of 12.2 mm is used, with a minimum breaking load of 134 kN. Tables are also provided listing the nominal diameters and minimum breaking loads of Galfan coated steel cables with both open spiral strands and full locked strands.
