Chinese Engineers build world’s first fully transparent glass bridge.
A team of 11 workers are transforming a 300-meter-long wooden bridge into a glass drawbridge that is 180-meters high in the air, at a national park in Hunan Province. It will reportedly be the first fully transparent glass drawbridge in the world.
“Although we are migrant workers, our team is proud to work on this drawbridge,” team leader Wei Yifu said via www.chinanews.com. The team works 12 hours a day to build the bridge. “If I’m lucky I can pave more than ten pieces of glass in one day,” another worker, Yang Guohong said.
Yang added, “We promise that the drawbridge we are building is very safe. Even if the glass cracks, the tourists won’t fall.” However that doesn’t make the bridge any safer for the workers, who are faced with severe shaking every time they step on it in its current state. Combined with intense working hours, the job is not for the faint hearted.
Glass skywalks, bridges and viewing platforms have become a major tourist attraction in China in recent years. The bridge, which will be named “Haohan bridge” or ‘brave man bridge’ will be completed before October 1.
