Recently, the first pile foundation of the approach bridge of the G107 Leiyang Ring Road crossing the Beijing Guangzhou Railway was successfully poured, and the project officially entered physical construction. The total length of the approach bridge is 471.4 meters, with 68 pile foundations and 113 box girders. The foundation of the bridge site is composed of soluble limestone, with developed karst caves and dissolution fractures, making pile foundation treatment extremely difficult. The project department ensures the quality of the first pile through measures such as drawing review, equipment debugging, and on-site monitoring throughout the process. In the next stage, we will summarize our experience, strictly control progress and safety, and assist in the early completion of the ring road.Editor/Cheng Liting
