A catenary curve is\ncreated by its own weight\, pulling down because of gravity. The parabolic curves\nof the suspension cable are not created by gravity alone\, but also by other forces:\ncompression and tension acting on it. Also\, the weight of the suspension cable is\nnegligible compared to that of the deck\, but it is also supporting the weight of the\ndeck.
