This bridge was built in the Sui Dynasty from 605 to 6 18. It was built by an ordinary stonemason, Li Chun, with a history of 1350 years. In the long years, despite numerous floods, wind and rain, ice and snow erosion and eight earthquakes, it stood on the Qingshui River unscathed.
Shaoxing is one of the famous historical and cultural cities in China. It was called Yue State in ancient times. There are many waterways in the territory, and it has the reputation of water town and water city. There is a bridge because of water, and there must be kilometers because of the bridge. There is a bridge every 0.023 1 square kilometer on average. Compared with the world-famous water city Venice, Italy, the density of bridges in this city was 45 times before World War II (the city covers an area of 567 square kilometers and is known as a bridge town.
According to the Qulu Map of Shaoxing Fucheng drawn by Guangxu Guisi (1893) in Qing Dynasty, there were 229 bridges in the city at that time, with an urban area of 7.4 square meters. At that time, there were 378 bridges, and now there are only 76), which is twice the density of bridges in Suzhou in the late Qing Dynasty (the urban area of Suzhou was 2 1 square kilometer, and there were 36,544 bridges in the late Qing Dynasty).
There are many bridges in Shaoxing. According to the statistics at the end of 1993, there were 106 10 bridges in the whole city, which is known as "the city of ten thousand bridges". Among these bridges, ancient bridges account for a large proportion, which is one of the areas with the largest number of preserved ancient bridges in China. From wooden beam bridges and wooden arch bridges adapted to Xiaojiang to pontoons adapted to rivers, to stone bridges, triangular bridges, pentagonal bridges, heptagonal bridges, semicircular stone arch bridges, horseshoe-shaped stone arch bridges, elliptical stone arch bridges and quasi-catenary arch bridges that have entered the world's advanced arch ring structure.
Among the 604 existing ancient bridges in the city, there were 3 ancient bridges1before the Song Dynasty, 4 ancient bridges1before the Ming Dynasty, and 550 ancient bridges were rebuilt, rebuilt and newly built in the Qing Dynasty. According to materials and structures, there are 0/0 ancient wooden bridges/KLOC (including wooden beam bridges and wooden arch bridges), 348 Liang Shi bridges (including three-fold bridges), 24 stone arch bridges/KLOC-0 (including multi-fold arches, semi-circular arches, horseshoe arches, elliptical arches and quasi-catenary arches), 4 multi-bridge composite bridges and 6,544 fiber bridges.
There are not only many kinds of ancient bridges in Shaoxing, but also many of them have won the title of "the best bridge" in China:
The earliest existing urban bridge in China-the splayed bridge in Song Dynasty
Xiandao Bridge, the only special Liang Shi Bridge in China in the Tang Dynasty.
Jingkou Bridge-the only horseshoe arch bridge with three continuous holes in China.
The first quasi-catenary arch bridge in China-Yucheng Bridge and Yingxian Bridge
China has the largest number of folding bridges.
These "best" show that Shaoxing ancient bridge is not only complete in categories, but also has reached the peak of its era in bridge type, bridge construction technology and technical level.
Shaoxing ancient bridge has the beauty of environmental layout, structural decoration and bridge poetry, which constitutes a unique water town traffic landscape. "Bow a rainbow, bring a jade belt in front of the door, and the famous bridge goes out of Yuezhou." Shaoxing ancient bridge culture has become an important part of Yue culture.
Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, modern bridge construction in Shaoxing has changed with each passing day. Among them, Chang 'an overpass, as the representative, is a major construction achievement in Shaoxing central city in recent years. Showed the modern features of Shaoxing ancient city to people inside and outside the province and at home and abroad, and opened a new chapter of Shaoxing modern bridge.
The longest ancient bridge in the northern part of southern Xinjiang should be pushed to Anping Bridge in Quanzhou, Fujian; The shortest is the Golden Belt Bridge in Hangzhou West Lake. Anji Bridge in Zhaoxian County is located 45 kilometers southeast of Shijiazhuang, the provincial capital. It is the oldest stone arch bridge with open shoulders and is famous at home and abroad for its superb scientific and artistic value.
Anji Bridge, located on the river south of Zhaoxian County, was called Zhaozhou in ancient times, also called Zhao Zhouqiao, because the bridge was made of stone, also called Dashiqiao. 196 1 was listed as the first batch of national key cultural relics protection units in the State Council. 199 1 year, American Society of Civil Engineers selected Anji Bridge as a milestone in international historical civil engineering 12.
Anji Bridge was built from the 15th year of Huang Kai in Sui Dynasty to the first year of Daye (AD 595-605) and supervised by craftsman Li Chun, with a history of 1400 years. This bridge is strong and magnificent. The total length is 64.4 meters and the vault is 9 meters wide. The design of the bridge completely conforms to scientific principles, and the construction technology is unique. Zhang, the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, said in the inscription of Dashiqiao in Zhaozhou: "It is made strangely, and people don't know what it is." Overall, it is a single arch bridge. The arch was 37.02 meters long and was the longest stone arch in the world at that time. Bridge opening is not an ordinary semicircle, but like a bow. The bridge deck is flat and wide, and it becomes a "flat arch", which gives consideration to land and water traffic and is convenient for vehicles and horses to run. This stone arch consists of 28 arch rings, each of which can stand independently to form a whole, which is convenient for independent construction and maintenance. Such a long-span flat arch has great horizontal thrust on the abutment and is difficult to construct. However, the abutment is a shallow and small ordinary rectangle with a thickness of only 1.549 m, which is made of five rows of stones. Its foundation is sub-clay, and its bearing capacity is small. It is rare in the world to build such a small abutment and such a large-span stone arch bridge on such a foundation.
The greatest scientific contribution of Anji Bridge is that it has created an "open-shouldered arch". On the two shoulders of the big arch, there are four parallel small arches, which not only increase the water passage, save stone and reduce the weight of the bridge, but also facilitate the passive pressure of the small arches on the big arch and enhance the stability of the bridge. This effectively ensures that Anji Bridge has survived numerous floods, eight major earthquakes and the heavy weight of vehicles for thousands of years in the history of 1000 years.
Time is like a filter, filtering away the dirt in memory and leaving glittering gold. I have enjoyed the simplicity and antiquity of Zhao Zhouqiao, and the vitality and grandeur of the Yangtze River Bridge. However, I always think of the small bridge in my hometown and the dream bridge in my childhood. As long as I have a holiday, constant concern always urges me to find that warm and sweet childhood memory.
