广州·海心桥

▽夜景鸟瞰

Night view

海心桥是广州第一条跨珠江人行景观桥，位于CBD核心区，北接二沙岛艺术公园，南连广州塔。上游距广州大桥约300m，下游距猎德大桥约1600m，是便捷联系两岸慢行系统的重要组成部分。

Haixin Bridge is the first pedestrian landscape bridge across the Pearl River in Guangzhou. It is located in the core area of the CBD, connected to Ersha Island Art Park in the north and Guangzhou Tower in the south. The upstream is about 300m away from Guangzhou Bridge, and the downstream is about 1600m away from Liede Bridge.

广州城市核心区被珠江分隔，两岸是世界级都市风光。这里缺的不仅仅是桥，而是具有联通功能的城市公共空间。步行桥方案以曲线形态联系南北，融入两岸现有步行系统，充分尊重中轴的空间秩序。步行桥以开放姿态环抱城市中心，形成朝向珠江核心景区的最佳环视观景面。

The core area of Guangzhou city boasts world-class urban landscapes on both sides of the Pearl River. However, what is lacking in this vibrant metropolis is not just a bridge, but a functional urban public space that seamlessly connects the two sides.

The proposed design of the pedestrian bridge features a fluid, curved shape that gracefully links the north and south of the city. The design also seamlessly integrates with the existing pedestrian systems on both sides, while paying careful attention to the spatial order of the central axis. The pedestrian bridge will embrace the city center with an open posture, creating an unrivaled panoramic view that overlooks the Pearl River's core scenic area. Not only will it serve as a vital artery for urban connectivity, but it will also provide a stunning public space for citizens and visitors alike.

桥梁的设计理念充分体现地域文化特征。桥型造型吸取岭南文化水袖、古琴的形态，桥面景观灵感源自当地水上花市。桥面不拘泥于传统桥梁解决思路，因为引入了花舟而分隔出东、西两侧空间，作为城市客厅的延续，比单纯的市政桥梁更具活力与人情味。

The design concept for the bridge is deeply rooted in the regional cultural identity, which is fully reflected in its architectural features. The bridge's form draws inspiration from the water sleeve and ancient Qin, two distinct cultural motifs found in the Lingnan region. Similarly, the bridge deck's landscape design is inspired by the local water flower market, creating a cohesive and integrated design that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The bridge's design solution moves beyond traditional approaches to bridge design, as the introduction of flower boats creates a physical separation between the eastern and western sides of the bridge deck. This design feature enhances the functionality of the bridge, providing additional space for pedestrians while creating a unique and dynamic urban space. As an extension of the city's public realm, the bridge serves as a vibrant and engaging social space, imbued with a sense of place and cultural identity that is essential to the region's architectural heritage.

桥面创新性地通过主梁两侧高差形成高低桥面，巧妙地布设了花池、看台及上下两种通行空间，兼顾了体验与高效，给予了各类行人的通行和观景的需要，形成了对比鲜明的桥面空间质感，提升了城市活力。

The bridge deck design is innovative, featuring a varied height profile on either side of the main beam, creating high and low surfaces. The incorporation of flower ponds, observation decks, and two types of pedestrian walkways for both upper and lower levels demonstrates a clever use of space, catering to the needs of pedestrians for passage and sightseeing, and resulting in a distinct spatial texture that enhances the city's vitality.

桥面采用了坡道顺接的方式衔接两岸步行带，使人们能够专注且放松的观赏风光，而无需不断留意脚下，以保证城市公共体验的连续与流畅。加以温润的实木扶手，避免高光反射的幕墙表皮，避免光源直射眼睛的泛光设计，防磕碰的倒圆角设计、喷雾降温等人性化细节，满足残障人士与儿童友好的使用体验。

The bridge deck is seamlessly connected to the pedestrian walkway on both sides using a slope, allowing pedestrians to fully immerse themselves in the surrounding scenery without the need for constant vigilance, ensuring a seamless and uninterrupted urban public experience. The design also includes warm wooden handrails, a non-reflective curtain wall surface to prevent glare, glare-free lighting design, rounded corners to prevent collisions, and mist cooling systems, all of which provide a user-friendly experience for people with disabilities and children.

Function analysis

桥面采用分幅设计，便捷联系各向人流，融入城市联通功能。主桥跨度198m，主拱向东倾斜10°，高56m，矢跨比1/3.4，主梁中跨宽15m，最宽处约20m。它是世界上跨度最大、桥面最宽的曲梁斜拱人行桥。桥梁平面以3段圆相切组合而成，桥梁立面的抛物线拱实现了两岸天际线的柔软过渡，桥梁轻盈通透的体量，能避免对珠江视线通廊的遮挡，成为重要的公共地标。

The bridge deck is segmented, integrating with the city's urban fabric and providing easy pedestrian access. The bridge has a 198-meter main span, with a primary arch tilted 10 degrees to the east and standing at 56 meters high. Its span-to-rise ratio is 1:3.4, with the central portion measuring 15 meters wide and the widest point at approximately 20 meters. This curved inclined pedestrian bridge is the world's largest in terms of span and has the widest bridge deck. The bridge's structural system comprises a curved inclined arch with a box girder, providing excellent structural stability and efficient use of materials. The primary arch's 10-degree tilt maximizes clearance height, and the bridge's lightweight and transparent structure avoids obstructing the view corridor of the Pearl River. Its plan is a combination of three tangent circles, and its elevations comprise parabolic arches that ensure a smooth transition between the skylines of the two banks.
