Design of Towers of Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge in Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon

The Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge in Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon is a pedestrian suspension bridge with spatial cable planes.The bridge has a main span of 430 m,which fulfills multiple purposes of sightseeing,landscaping,recreation and leisure.To be in harmony with the stone forests in Zhangjiajie,the towers are designed as circular mono-column reinforced concrete structures with heights of 40.65(northwest),40.65(southwest),37.15(northeast)and 40.15 m(southeast),and there is no cross beam between the two columns on each end.The transverse center-to-center distances of the two west columns and the two east columns are 45 m and 50 m,respectively.The foundation of each tower comprises 4,1.2 m-diameter bored piles with man-digging holes.The analysis of the overall static force,stability of the towers and the structural details demonstrates that the load bearing behavior of the bridge is rational and the bridge structure is safe and reliable.
