Dongting Lake Bridge, Cable-stayed bridge in Yueyang, China

The Dongting Lake Bridge spans 18,868 meters across the second largest freshwater lake in China with a cable-stayed section supported by three towers.

The construction of this infrastructure project began in December 1996 and reached completion in December 2000, requiring an investment of 805 million yuan.

The bridge connects multiple communities around Dongting Lake, forming a crucial link in the transportation network of northeastern Hunan Province.

The structure carries four lanes of traffic and integrates with China National Highway 107, the Jingzhu Expressway, and Provincial Highway Route 1804.

The bridge incorporates magnetorheological fluid technology in its cable dampers, which adjusts viscosity through electromagnetic fields to control structural vibrations.
