Abstract:Based on the past,current situation and development achievements of the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal,considering that water in the Yangtze River has crossed the Yellow River after implementation of the south-to-north water diversion project east line phase I project,referring to the advanced experience on the river-crossing engineering over the world,and according to the hydrological,topographical and geologic conditions of the Yellow River,the author puts forward several proposals on the interchanging schemes including level crossing and overhead crossing as using tunnel,canal bridge,wide track plus ship chamber and corresponding analyzing comments.The presentation and implementation of the Yellow River-crossing engineering scheme for Beijing-Hangzhou Canal not only declares the construction level of water transport engineering in China to the world,but also makes contribution to the integrative development of Beijing,Tianjin and Hebei province in the process of realizing the whole-line opening to navigation in Beijing-Hangzhou Canal.
