Infant Bridge is located in the west section of Qinhe River, Cheng Chuan Street (Handan Road), the main urban area of Handan City, Hebei Province.

The bridge is 32 meters long, 9 meters wide and 8 meters high. There are 19 blocks and 18 sentries on both sides, both of which are carved with stories of historical figures and beautiful animals such as lions and monkeys.

architectural feature

(1) adopts the form of circular arch, which changes the tradition that China Dashiqiao is mostly semi-circular arch. The arches of stone bridges in ancient China are mostly semicircular, which are beautiful and complete, but they also have two defects: First, the traffic is inconvenient, and the semicircular arches are more suitable for bridges with smaller spans, while the adoption of semicircular arches for long-span bridges will make the arches very high and steep, making it inconvenient for pedestrians and cars to cross the bridge. Second, the construction is unfavorable, and the scaffolding used for semi-circular arch stone masonry will be very high, which will increase the construction risk. Therefore, the infant bridge is in the form of arc arch, which greatly reduces the height of stone arch, realizes the dual purposes of low deck and large span, and has the advantages of smooth transition of deck, convenience for vehicles and pedestrians, material saving and convenient construction.

(2) The shoulder is adopted, that is, two small arches are set at both ends of the large arch. This kind of open-shouldered arch with large arch and small arch has excellent technical performance. First of all, it can increase the flood discharge capacity and reduce the impact of flood on bridges caused by the increase of water volume in flood season. Secondly, compared with solid shoulder arch, open shoulder arch can save a lot of earthwork materials and reduce the dead weight of the bridge, thus reducing the vertical pressure and horizontal thrust of the bridge on the abutment and bridge foundation and increasing the stability of the bridge. Third, it adds a beautiful shape. The four small arches are balanced and symmetrical, and the large arch and the small arch form a complete picture, which is lighter and more beautiful, reflecting the complete unity of architecture and art. Fourthly, according to the theory of structural mechanics, the open-shouldered arch structure can make the bridge in a favorable state when bearing load, reduce the deformation of the main arch ring and improve the bearing capacity and stability of the bridge.

(3) Single hole. In the traditional construction methods in ancient China, long bridges are usually in the form of multiple holes, so that each hole has a small span, a gentle slope and is easy to build. However, porous bridges also have disadvantages, such as many piers, which are not conducive to the navigation of ships and hinder flood discharge; The pier has been impacted and eroded by the current for a long time, and it is easy to collapse over time.
