<u>Suspension</u> is a type of construction where the main load-bearing elements are hung from suspension cables that are then suspended from vertical supports anchored into the ground or a riverbed.
<em><u>Suspension structures are building structures in which the main elements that support the load such as wires, cables, chains, grids, sheet diaphragms,etc are subject only to forces of extension.</u></em>
Suspension structures may be either plane or spatial. Spatial suspension structures are generally used for large-span roofs of public and industrial buildings.
