Zusammenfassung:An exemplary bridge includes an arch unit. The arch unit includes a first abutment and a second abutment, a deck extending between the first and second abutments, a pair of asymmetrical arches, and a plurality of suspender members 3 attached between the arches and the deck. The first and second abutments are spaced apart from each other at a predetermined distance. The asymmetrical arches are juxtaposedly arranged between and supported by the first and second abutments. Each of the asymmetrical arches includes a first arch foot portion mounted on the first abutment, a parabolic portion proximate to the first arch foot portion, a catenary portion proximate to the parabolic portion, and a second arch foot portion proximate to the catenary portion mounted on the second abutment.
