Sanyuan Bridge, Extreme Mega Engineering, How China REPLACED 1300 tonne Bridge in 43 Hours

CCTV just released a time-lapse video of the building, which took only 43 hours. (The aim had been to complete the task in 24 hours, but the workers discovered that the damage was much worse than they had expected.)

How long does it take to build a bridge? Is it a month, two months, or a year and a half? As a result, China was able to build a bridge in 43 hours. This is amazing. The video is now available to the public, and Western netizens were taken away by China's quickness. In this 73-second clip, the Sanyuan Bridge reconstruction project in Beijing is detailed. This appears to be the rate at which China is moving. After experiencing the new miracle made by the Chinese bridge,

Western netizens have not forgotten to beat themselves and speak openly in the nation. To build such a bridge, at least three presidential administrations are necessary.

There are numerous huge bridge projects in China, but the Beijing Sanyuan Bridge has gotten a lot of attention both at home and abroad. The bridge is made of concrete and is cast in place. The bridge's life has been exhausted because to the bridge's relatively old construction period and high-strength use. The most successful technique is to completely renovate the bridge, which is well worth a visit. What I'd like to point out is that Beijing, as China's capital, has a sizable population, and Sanyuan Bridge is located on one of Beijing's major thoroughfares. Even a

one-week construction phase, let alone a one-month construction period, will have a significant impact on Beijing's traffic. Influence.

As a result, the bridge replacement project will be completed within 24 hours, as per the

construction team's initial plan, in order to minimise the impact of bridge construction on traffic.

The plan is to cut the original bridge deck in its entirety, transport it straight using trucks, and then replace it at the original spot with a new bridge. Although the method appears to be simple, actually operating it is a difficult undertaking. This bridge, for example, is responsible for the removal of the old bridge. The weight is heavy, making removal quite difficult. As a result, the bridge can only be cut in pieces, which necessitates the use of multiple cutting machines.

The construction crew chose integrated steel as the bridge support system rather than continuing

with the concrete platform design for the new bridge surface materials. Steel bridges are significantly lighter than concrete bridges and are also easier to construct. Second, because concrete has a limited service life, the old Sanyuan Bridge must be repaired; the steel bridge, on the other hand, has a considerably longer service life, eliminating the headache of later replacement. The bridge is designed to last at least 100 years. Even if it is necessary to replace it, the lighter structural weight makes it easier to do so.

It's no surprise that worldwide netizens are dissatisfied with China's rapid creation of a successor for the Sanyuan Bridge. After all, designing a bridge in their nation may take more than 10 years, and it will almost certainly be cancelled halfway through. Bridges also surfaced due to a lack of finance, and development was suspended halfway through. Only during the presidential election,

when the public's backing is needed, should bridge construction be increased. However, since the election, building progress has slowed, and it now takes three presidents to build a bridge, which is not a joke.

Foreign netizens, of course, no longer have reason to admire China. After all, the globalisation plan has been put into action, and we have supported various Asian and African countries in completing bridge projects. As a result, if bridge construction in Western developed countries isnecessary, it may be assigned to China's infrastructure. The completeness of the team can notonly ensure the efficiency and quality of the construction, but it can also greatly decrease

construction costs.

Finally, the main bridge was built with nine steel box beams. The new bridge floor is 55.4 metres long and 44.8 metres wide. The bridge is a major crossing on the 3rd Ring Road's northeastern part in Beijing. The Airport Freeway, Jingshun Road (China National Highway 101), and the 3rd

Ring Road are all linked by the major flyover. The bridge's construction was managed by a team of nine specialists.
