Webnet© from Jakob Rope Systems and a selection of suitable hardware, accessories, and cables were employed in the creation of a green facade trellis in the Monard Terrace, a luxury apartment building in Miami, USA.
System
Jakob Rope Systems offers a range of indoor and outdoor products, from fiber rope nets for climbing to wire nets for safety. For this project, the following products were used:
- Webnet© 2 mm diameter cable with 160 mm opening
- Structural cables of 8 mm diameter
- Cable rails of 6mm
Thanks to the different offerings from Jakob Rope Systems, the designers were able to achieve various functionalities with the green facade, such as providing visual intimacy from neighbor to neighbor, transparency, plant training, and helping the intentional espalier geometry designed by the architect.
