CASE DETAIL

Mao Yisheng (茅以升)

Mao Yisheng (1896-1989) was a bridge engineer and educator. Xin Metal, an Indirect Resource pattern, and Officer-Resource support fit structural calculation, engineering responsibility, and a long bridge-building career.

Birth Time Verification

Mao Yisheng’s birthday comes from the Mao Yisheng Memorial Hall: 1896-01-09, with Zhenjiang, Jiangsu as the birthplace. No direct birth-hour record was found. This page marks the hour as inferred and compares the twelve possible hours. The Shen-hour chart is Yi Wei, Ji Chou, Xin You, Bing Shen. Xin Metal sits on You, so Metal is strong. Bing Fire Direct Officer appears on the hour stem, and Ren Water Hurting Officer is stored inside Shen. Bridge engineering needs exact calculation and public responsibility; the Shen hour brings Metal precision, Fire rules, and Water technical expression together. Bing Shen in the hour helps explain his path from overseas engineering training to major bridge projects and long-term engineering education.

Core Analysis

Mao Yisheng’s chart with the Shen hour is Yi Wei, Ji Chou, Xin You, Bing Shen. Xin Metal sits on You, the Chou month gives Indirect Resource, and the hour pillar is Bing Shen. The chart is read as an Indirect Resource pattern with Officer-Resource support. Fire and Water help; excessive Earth-Metal is heavy.

Indirect Resource favors study, drawings, calculation, and engineering method. Bing Fire Direct Officer on the hour stem represents responsibility, standards, and public safety in large projects. Ren Water Hurting Officer stored in Shen is technical expression: the ability to turn complex structures into buildable plans.

After 1917, Bing Xu Direct Officer luck matured his overseas engineering training. In 1937, during Jia Shen luck, the Qiantang River Bridge was completed and then destroyed under wartime necessity; engineering responsibility and national pressure arrived together. In 1989, Ji Mao Indirect Resource luck and the Ji Si year brought heavy Earth-Fire; in old age, traditional life-span reading would watch the heart, brain, blood pressure, and qi-blood endurance.

Traits

01

Structural Precision

Xin Metal sitting on You fits calculation and engineering detail.

02

Engineering Responsibility

Bing Fire Direct Officer in the hour values rules and public safety.

Heavy Earth-Metal makes long responsibility physically costly.

Timeline

Each year shows the event, luck pillar, annual pillar, relations, and interpretation for direct comparison.

1916
20yrs education

Won a Tsinghua scholarship to study in the U.S.

After graduation, Mao Yisheng won a Tsinghua government scholarship and entered bridge engineering training abroad.

BaZi Note
Ding Hai luck brings Fire and Water together: academic pressure and technical expression. In 1916, Bing Chen combined Officer and Resource, fitting overseas study and engineering training.
1919
23yrs education

Received a doctorate in engineering

He earned a doctorate in engineering in the United States, completing systematic engineering training.

BaZi Note
Bing Xu luck makes rules and degree structure important, while Earth Resource is heavy. The Ji Wei year fits a solid academic foundation and a doctorate.
1937
41yrs Career

Qiantang River Bridge completed and destroyed

The Qiantang River Bridge he led opened to traffic, then was destroyed under wartime necessity.

BaZi Note
Jia Shen luck brings major project resources, and Shen Metal repeats the hour branch, strengthening execution. In 1937, Ding Chou brought Killings and Resource together: engineering success and wartime responsibility in one event.
1957
61yrs Career

Advised on the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge

The Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge opened, with Mao Yisheng holding important technical advisory responsibility.

BaZi Note
Ren Wu luck gives technical expression and major-project pressure. In 1957, Ding You combined Fire and Metal, requiring both technical judgment and national-level responsibility.
1989
93yrs Personal

Died in Beijing

Mao Yisheng died in 1989.

BaZi Note
Ji Mao luck keeps Resource heavy, with reputation and documentation continuing in old age. In 1989, Ji Si made Earth and Fire heavy; traditional life-span reading would watch heart-brain strain, blood pressure, and qi-blood endurance.

FAQ

Why does this chart use the Shen hour? +
There is no direct hour record. This page compares the twelve possible hours. Bing Shen explains precision, engineering duty, and major bridge practice well.
What is the central pattern? +
Using the Shen hour, the chart reads as an Indirect Resource pattern with Officer-Resource support. Indirect Resource covers study and drawings; Direct Officer covers standards and public safety.
How does the Qiantang River Bridge appear in the chart? +
In 1937, Jia Shen luck and the Ding Chou year brought project resources, technical execution, and wartime pressure together.
How is 1989 read? +
Ji Mao luck and the Ji Si year bring heavy Earth and Fire. In old age, heart-brain strain, blood pressure, and qi-blood endurance are the main traditional life-span concerns.
