A suspension bridge exhibits a parabolic shape due to the way the cables distribute tension and load. When a load is applied, the weight of the bridge and any traffic creates a curve in the main cable, which ideally forms a parabolic arc. This shape minimizes the bending moments and forces acting on the towers and deck, allowing for efficient weight distribution. Additionally, the geometry of a parabola ensures that the vertical forces are evenly distributed along the span of the bridge.
