Transborder across the river in Andělská Hora
1/1
During the work on the installation of the Czechoslovak pavilion at the Venice Biennale 2010, the Liberec Region underwent extensive flooding. Immediately after we returned, we built a wooden construction of a transborder, designed by the e-Mrak studio, directly on the spot where a bridge was destroyed. A transborder is a transportation system, which uses a gondola (carriage), suspended on pulleys moving on a specially modified truss, to transport objects across the barrier. This is a particular modification of an aerial tramway. The load-bearing construction is at a sufficient height not to be endangered by floods. The building is presented on the Archiweb server.
