The long-term performance and corrosion fatigue damage status were investigated and analyzed under the service environment for the cable structures in cable-stayed bridges, suspension bridges, and suspender arch bridges. The artificial accelerated corrosion fatigue tests were carried out on galvanized parallel steel wire under coupled loading and environments. The damage mechanisms of galvanized parallel steel wire in corrosion, stress corrosion, and corrosion fatigue were investigated. The

Furthermore, combined with the cable damage evolution model, the service life prediction method and assessment technology of cables based on damage safety are established.
