The Sutong Bridge across the lower Yangtze river in China will have, when completed, the longest span and highest towers of any cable stayed span in the world. The foundations for this record setting span will also be record setting. They are located in water depths exceeding 30 m with maximum flows exceeding 3 m/sec. The soil at the site of main pylons consists of layers of silty sand and silty clays extending to bed rock at 270 m below river elevation.
