Well, those "individual pieces" are pre-cast as opposed to being cast on site. Pre-cast segments (most likely cast close to the construction site to improve transportation logistics) are joined together by (pre-stressed) cables, and are set in place by tension. Notice that all precast segments have holes in them for cables to pass through. Precast segment construction is a more efficient method of of bridge span construction.
