A bridge pier is a vertical structure that supports the bridge's superstructure and transfers loads to the foundation, typically found between spans. A pylon is a taller, often decorative structure used to support cables in cable-stayed or suspension bridges, providing both structural support and aesthetic appeal. An abutment is located at the ends of a bridge, supporting the ends of the bridge span and connecting it to the ground or earth embankment, resisting horizontal forces and stabilizing the structure.
