| Abstrakt: |
The Articulated Funiculator is a quantum leap in vertical transportation in tall buildings, deep underground subway stations and deep mines. The Funiculator is an integrated vertical transportation system, not just an elevator. The Funiculator is a connected system of pods that moves people in masse, a vertical sky subway system. A single Funiculator system utilizes shaft sharing and requires only two vertical shafts which dramatically increases the percentage of usable floor space in tall buildings and reduces the amount of tunneling in deep subway stations and deep mines. |
