Most suspension bridges are a curvy shape and slope downwards with a rope or chain hooking down onto the bridge. Some suspension bridges are made to move a little in the wind, for example the Humber Bridge moves 1 metre in the middle when it is really windy. Bernard Wex (the designer of the Humber Bridge) designed the bridge to move a little but not so much it would break. An Arch Bridge.
