IN long use they subjected ulternative strains or stresses

No it is due to forced oscillations caused due to resonance
caused by matchin of vehicles's frequencies with fundamental frequency of bridge
and over many years bridge grows weak!
 
 
@guy below me...
most wearing of bridge takes place due to forced oscillations by resonance only!

me1st is right .............
it is because after years the bridge's strain wud
increase which will lead to a situation in which the bridge breaks

the rusting of the maetals involved is the main reason....
the stress factor is also thr!!!

bridges r diclear unsafe after long use because they loose their elasticity after repeated stress and strain by the vehicles going over the bridges.

it may be due to resonance..
