CRITIC / CHRIS KRONER

COMPLETED / SPRING 2013

A cross-sectional analysis was performed to understand the construction and tectonics of connective infrastructure of a bridge. 

The La DeVasa Footbridge (Ripoli, Spain) designed by Santiago Calatrava was explored and manipulated to perform tectonic kinetic time-based design showing precision, craft, environment and technical clarity.

Deployment, mechanics, temporal operation and construction are the initial means of this animated investigation.
