Structural Design of Long-Span Railway Suspension Bridge
摘要
Wufengshan Yangtze River Bridge is the first long-span railway suspension bridge designed and built by China. Multiple suspension bridge alternatives with different main span lengths, including 1120 m main span recommended by feasibility study, 1036 m main span and 1092 m main span proposed by preliminary study, were developed and compared. The preferred bridge alternative is three-span suspension bridge with span layout of 350 m + 1092 m + 350 m, which is also the first rail-cum-road high speed railway bridge with main span over 1000 m in the world.
