Which outcome results when cyclic loading exceeds material's endurance limit of a steel suspension bridge cable?

💡 Explanation

Fatigue failure occurs through progressive cable failure due to repeated stress; bond scission occurs at the molecular level because repeated stress weakens metallic bonds in the steel; therefore, crack propagation occurs gradually rather than sudden yielding, under a static load.
