The 3D model was originally crafted using Sketchup 8, then effortlessly converted into various formats for widespread compatibility. Native files are saved in the .skp format while 3dsmax scenes run smoothly with the 2016 version of the software, leveraging the power of Vray 3.00 for rendering. The iconic structure is commonly known as the Wuhan Yangtze River Highway Bridge. At the heart of the nation's "eight five" period projects lies this massive bridge undertaking. Spanning an impressive length of 3227.4 meters, its core consists of twin towers supporting a double cable plane reinforced concrete cable-stayed span of 180 meters +400 meters +180 meters, boasting a width of 26.5 meters and dividing into six lanes for easy navigation. Its striking main tower reaches a height of 153.6 meters in the form of an H-type design, secured by high-strength steel wires expertly laid out in parallel to add extra stability. Following years of rigorous construction, this monumental bridge was finally opened to traffic in December 1994, transforming Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge into a vital transportation artery serving thousands daily. Strategically located just 6.8 km downstream from the bridge's northern counterpart in Hankou Huangpu and flanked by three overpasses, it stretches across the majestic Yangtze River to Wuchang Xudong. With a staggering daily traffic capacity of 50,000 vehicles, this magnificent engineering feat stands as testament to human ingenuity, starting its construction phase in 1991 before its official opening in June 1995.
