One of the longest box girder bridge in the world, the double-line Shibanpo Yangtze River Bridge
connects Chongqing’s Yuzhong and Nan’an Districts and dramatically improves traffic flow across
the Yangtze River. The new bridge runs parallel to the old bridge and is positioned 25m away
from the older structure. The total length of the new 7-span box girder bridge is 1,103m with a
330m long and 19m wide main span. To satisfy strict River navigation requirements and match
the aesthetic view of the existing bridge, the 103m long portion at midspan of the main span
of the bridge is used with steel box girder structure, which in that way effectively reduces the
bending moment and shear force of the overall main girder.
