National Palace Museum View Bridge

Main features used in this application Linear static and dynamic response analysis

Description on this project

The bridge is a part of the architectural program of the southern branch of the National Palace
Museum. In line with the design concept and shape of the museum buildings, the idea behind the
scenic bridge is also based on Caoshu, a cursive Chinese script. The bridge has an unpretentious
and lightweight profile by eschewing the use of central piers, it does not affect the existing
waterproofing membranes of the lake. Spanning about 140m, this box girder arch bridge with a
single steel arch takes the form of a curve rising just above the water, with the apex of the arch
only 16m from the bridge paving.
