Abstract
The structural cable has a bundle of substantially parallel tendons contained in at least one plastic protective sheath section. The plastic material of the sheath section extends between the tendons to form a coherent matrix for spacing the tendons. The cable may be used as a pre-stressing cable, a stay cable or a carrying cable for suspension bridges.
