Construction Technology of Jiu-Jiang Yangtze River Highway Bridge

Abstract:

Jiu-Jiang Yangtze River Highway Bridge, with a main span of 818m, is another long span hybrid girder cable-stayed bridge which connects Jiang Xi province and Hu Bei province in China. Steel box girder is adopted in main span and north side span, and main girder of south side span and south tower nearby is designed of concrete box girder. The pylon is concrete structure, with the height of 242.3m and H-shape. There are 216 cables used in this bridge, of which are assembled by parallel strands. Jiu-Jiang Yangtze River Highway Bridge began to construct in 2009, and was closed in December, 2012. The bridge opened to traffic officially in the next year. Design concept, construction method and vibration control measures about Jiu-Jiang Yangtze River Highway Bridge are introduced in this article.
