Which risk was increased in early rope suspension bridges due to concentrated dynamic load?

A)Rope fiber fatigue increases rapidly
B)Deck sway induces cable slack
C)Anchorage slippage becomes more pronounced
D)Tower bending stresses concentrates rapidly

💡 Explanation

Concentrated dynamic load on early rope bridges increased rope fiber stresses; because dynamic loading causes cyclic stress acceleration on individual fibers affecting fatigue, leading to cumulative damage; therefore rope failure was more prominent rather than other structural responses.
