This course project supplements students’ knowledge in design and construction of this specific type of transport and gain certain practical experience. The project emphasizes on the structural part – dimensioning of bearing components (cables, piers, stations) of the cable railways. Special attention is paid to the dimensioning of an individual pier, loaded in most unfavourable way under dead and live weights.
The design of the longitudinal profile of the facility is reduced to correct determination of station and pier locations as well as the related verifications.
