The Golden Gate Bridge is a 1.7-mile-long suspension bridge spanning across the Golden Gate strait. In terms of structure, where does the strength of this bridge lie?

While the strength of other bridges may come from materials such as concrete or steel, a suspension bridge's strength lies in its cables. The cables of the Golden Gate Bridge are 36 inches in diameter, extend 7,650 feet, and are anchored in concrete.
