Abstract
The Kap Shui Mun Bridge, one of the key links of the Lantau Fixed Crossing, Hong Kong, is of cable-stayed type, providing for both rail and road traffic. The wind response analysis, in view of the exposure of the bridge to high typhoon winds, required detailed review of oscillatory stability and buffeting. Specially designed section model wind tunnel studies, coupled with advanced three-dimension) analytical methods, provided a framework in which a comprehensive design envelope could be realized. The process employed was aimed at reducing to minimal necessary proportions both experimental testing and study costs.
