Abstract :
Topological optimization method and the force tracing method was applied to find a better form for the main component of the special feature of Taizhou Yangtze River Highway Bridge, a triple-pylon suspension bridge, which is under construction in China. Combining with other modeling methods, the landscape design of Taizhou Yangtze River Highway Bridge is carried out and the final scheme is adopted in the construction.
