Pulleys in Architecture

Pulleys in architecture refer to a system of wheels and ropes used to distribute weight or create mechanical advantage. They enable easier movement or lifting of heavy materials during construction or operation of buildings. By changing direction and reducing force needed, pulleys improve efficiency and safety. Architectural pulleys are often integrated into cranes, hoists, or window systems, ensuring that heavy loads can be managed with less effort, precise control, and stability. This application of pulley systems enhances both functional performance and safety in building design and maintenance.
