Overall Design of the Nanjing Jiangxinzhou Yangtze River Bridge

This paper systematically introduces the overall design concept of the Nanjing Jiangxinzhou Yangtze River Bridge. The main bridge is a three-tower cable-stayed bridge featuring a longitudinal diamond cable tower and dual central cable planes. The bridge span is designed to be a total of 80+218+600+600+218+80 = 1796m. A steel-shell composite cable tower design is adopted, with the main girder including a high-performance steel-coarse aggregate reactive powder concrete

（CA-RPC） composite girder structure. The cable tower uses cast-in-situ bored pile group foundations, and the stay cables are formed of steel strands. The south and north approach bridges use segmented prefabricated prestressed concrete box girders. The bridge over the river dyke uses a continuous box girder made of prestressed corrugated steel webs for the 78m span and the construction technology of segmented prefabrication has being used for the first time. Nanjing Jiangxinzhou Yangtze River Bridge has become a classic engineering structure which not only environmentally-friendly, but also meets all requirements of industrial construction attributed to the application of a high-performance composite structure for the main bridge, as well as large-scale prefabricated assembly structures for approach bridges and bridges over river dykes.
