The Akashi Kaikyo Bridge is a 3-span, 2-hinged stiffening truss suspension bridge being 3910 m long with a center span of 1990 m. This will be about 500 m longer than that of the Humber bridge in England, making it the longest bridge in the world. Moreover, this bridge is constructed under severe conditions, I.e., rapid tidal current, deep water, strong wind, strong earthquake. Therefore, many careful attention had to be paid to the design and construction method. This paper describes the outline of the design and construction of Akashi Kaikyo Bridge. ƒL�[ƒ��[ƒh�i‰p�j�F - ‹LŽ–‹æ•ª�F - ‹æ•ª �@�@�@ˆÏˆõ‰ï˜_•¶�W
