Discover how China built an incredible 1,860-meter suspension bridge across the Yangtze River — a massive engineering project designed around one extraordinary challenge: its towers could rise only about 195 meters because of a nearby airport.
To support the enormous double-deck structure carrying 10 traffic lanes, engineers designed the bridge with four main cables instead of a conventional pair.
In this engineering documentary, follow the construction process from surveying the Yangtze River and building massive foundations and anchorages to raising the 195-meter towers, installing four giant main cables, and assembling the huge double-deck steel truss.
See how workers lifted massive steel sections from barges above an active shipping channel while engineers constantly monitored wind, cable geometry, deck alignment, and structural movement.
Finally, watch as the two sides of the enormous 1,860-meter span meet above the Yangtze River, completing one of China’s most challenging mega bridge projects.
