Prestressed Concrete Strand is also commonly known as stay cable/bridge cable which are getting more popular for big span bridges. 

Prestressed Concrete Strand offers a fast and efficient solution to small and medium-size cable stayed bridges. It eliminates the requirement for heavy lifting crane and machinery. It also reduces the total manpower and on-deck carbon footprint. And the most attractive factor is the fast turn-around time as compared to on-site installation stay cable. There is no requirement for on-site strand-by-strand prestressing or post tensioning work.
