In 1989, Freyssinet invented the first individually protected multi-strand stay cable, forming the foundation of Freyssinet’s cable-stayed technology. Since then, the technology has been used and refined in more than 300 projects, including the Normandy Bridge, the Iroise Bridge, and the Millau Viaduct in France; the Vasco da Gama Bridge in Lisbon; the Rion Antirion Bridge in Greece; the BC Place Stadium roof in Vancouver (2011); and the Russky Island Bridge in Vladivostok, which, with a main span of 1,104 metres, still holds the world record.
