The Tianxingzhou Yangtze River Bridge is an important fixed link across the Yangtze River in Wuhan for both the city's highway network and the high speed railway line from Guangzhou to Wuhan. Its main bridge is a double-deck cable-stayed bridge with main span of 504m, carrying four rail tracks on the lower deck and six road lanes on the upper. The paper describes some of its main features and key technologies that has been successfully studied and adopted on the bridge including structural system, a cable-stayed bridge with three cable planes and three truss planes as well as the choice of foundation type, foundation construction features and the erection of bridge by truss segments, which is first time used in the country for a truss bridge. |
