Suspension bridge Dynamic load refers to environmental factors that go beyond normal weather conditions, factors such as sudden gusts of wind and earthquakes. All three factors must be taken into consideration when building a bridge. The principles of suspension used on the large scale may also appear in contexts less dramatic than road or rail bridges. Light cable suspension may prove less expensive and seem more elegant for a cycle or footbridge than strong girder supports. An example of this is the Nescio Bridge in the Netherlands. Where such a bridge spans a gap between two buildings, there is no need to
Acoustic suspension acoustic suspension, with a separate, sealed air-space, even if the woofer itself is not. One notable exception to this was the Sonus Faber Stradivari Homage which uses a ported enclosure for the midrange. The two most common types of speaker enclosure are acoustic suspension (sometimes called pneumatic suspension) and bass reflex, so they are worth comparing. In both cases, the tuning affects the lower end of the driver's response but above a certain frequency, the driver itself becomes the dominant factor and the size of the enclosure and ports (if any) become irrelevant. In general, acoustic suspension systems (driver +
