Bridges, ladders, plank walks, and high wires are all popular options to enhance the traditional via ferrata elements of rungs and cable. VFS has built many different types of elements in coordination with our engineering team. Longer spans of 100+ generally use a 5-wire construction with 4-8” decked walkway surface and full span safety cable. Shorter spans and rises can employ 3-wire “Burma Bridges”, elevated sky ladders, and 2-wire balance wires. We’ve even done some platform jumps!
