常德桃花源大桥首次接受全面“体检”-春运网|||||||||||||||||||>>>正文常德桃花源大桥首次接受全面“体检”　　正在进行体检的桃花源大桥。　　　　桃花源大桥资料图　　红网常德站9月26日讯(分站记者 黄刚) 9月25日，常德市桥梁管理处邀请湖南省桥梁检测专家，使用专业设备将对桃花源大桥进行体检，从桥梁主体结构到附属构造物，从桥面铺装、桥梁栏杆，到水底的桥台、桥墩基础，所有部位进行一次“深度体检”。　　上午，记者在常德桃花源大桥上看到，一辆橘黄色的大车在桥面上缓缓移动，旋转平台上伸出的长臂直接探到桥下，并稳稳托起一个狭长的工作平台，这是检测桥梁的工程车辆。此次“体检”是桃花源大桥开通半年多来首次接受的全面体检。　　据相关技术人员介绍，这种新型桥梁检测车360度旋转的基座可向斜上方伸出一个支架，支架末端是可以垂直伸缩的吊篮，最下方有个袖珍操作室，旁边又伸出一个横向的斗状平台，供携带各种专业检测设备的技术人员在这个平台上安全作业。检测人员将在未来的一个星期内，对整座桥梁进行全面检测维护，保证桥梁更安全地运行。　　桃花源大桥位于武陵区落路口港口上游约400米，与常德沅江一大桥相隔5500米。全长528米，宽32米，双向6车道，桥身采用双塔斜拉式设计。相关新闻推荐新闻请选择省份交通:让世界惊叹的中国工程《老外看中国--中国山地公路、桥梁之旅》

　　The new Qianjiang River Pipeline Bridge rises more then 147 meters above the canyon floor. Image by Eric Sakowski / 新 黔江油气管线桥 约有147米高 　　The Qianjiang River from the pipeline arch bridge. Image by Eric Sakowski / 从油气管拱桥上看黔江河面　　I have come across something new and spectacular every trip I have taken to China but the most incredible find yet may well be the epic cliff sculpture of the goddess Avalokite?vara (观音) just south of Qianjiang City. The bas-relief sculpture is reportedly 123 meters high with a width of 69 meters but the full height above the river is around 275 meters based on the height of the nearby pipeline bridge. This is approximately the same height as the entire Stone Mountain in Georgia which is 263 meters from the summit to the surrounding terrain. The sculpture on Stone Mountain is just 48 x 23 meters with the outer cutout measuring 109 x 58 meters. This would make the Qianjiang Avalokite?vara sculpture the largest of its type in the world. What is not clear is how much of the surface is made of concrete rather then just pure stone carving. Image by Eric Sakowski / 　　经过了不少新奇壮观的旅程，但最不 可思议的发现是黔江城南峭壁上正在雕刻一尊观音女神像。这尊浅浮雕菩萨像有123米高，69米宽，但从河面算起雕像顶部约有275米高。大约和乔治亚州石 山的相对高度一样。石山上的雕塑只有48*23米，外框109*58米。这使得黔江观音像成为这类浮雕中最大的。目前不清楚的是其表面有多大会是混凝土而 不是完全从石面雕刻出。　　The face of the goddess Avalokite?vara.

　　There was no better way to kick off the 3rd week then our tour of Balinghe Bridge, the longest and highest in Guizhou Province. A group of CCTV producers met us at the bridge to talk about the possibility of doing a world record bungee jump from the bridge for an episode of the China Guinness TV show. Although the bungee attempt has been put on hold we had a pleasant afternoon with Guizhou highway leader Zhou Ping and producers Wang Wei, Pia and Gao MingZe. 我们第三周旅途开始的地方是贵州最大最高的大桥—— 坝陵河大桥。没有什么比这更激动人心。一些CCTV的制作人遇到我们，大家谈论能否策划一个世界最高的蹦极活动记录入吉尼斯大全。尽管后来蹦极活动没有实际举行，我们和贵州公路部门领导之一周平，CCTV制作人王巍、Pia以及高明泽一起度过了一个愉快的下午。 　　PS此桥更多震撼图片/wiki/index.php?title=Balinghe_Bridge　　Bruce speaks with Zhou Ping and Pia.布鲁斯在和周平、Pia聊天　　Pia and Zhou Ping enjoy the view from the 370 meter high Balinghe Bridge.
