The New Shibanpo Bridge, Chongqing, China

The new Shibanpo Bridge crosses the Yangtze River in Chongqing, China, connecting the southern district and the Yuezhong District. This box girder bridge's long span was made economically and technologically feasible by using a 103 m steel box girder in the middle of the 330 m main span, connecting monolithically to the concrete box girder to reduce the weight of the structure.
