The latter formed a cable which held the diagonal stay rods.

The inner section of the lower spring beam is connected to the bogie bolster with the help of an equalizing stay rod.

The entire structure is thus held in place by exploiting the tensions between the pylons and the various stay rods and struts.

Over the next three years the steel staying rods were augmented with steel chains, giving it an appearance more closely resembling a conventional suspension bridge, and a new timber deck was laid.

In steam power plants, MJTs are used on boiler feed pump head and barrel casings, boiler circ pump main flanges, stop valves, control valves, turbine couplings, stay rods, manway doors, inlet flanges, and feedwater heaters.
