架构师提供的文本描述。社区驱动的“BridgingMzamba”项目源于周围居民对安全穿越姆赞巴河的迫切需要和要求，包括以协作方式设计和实施一座140米长的悬索桥。

Text description provided by the architects. The community driven project ´bridgingMzamba` originated in the urgent need of and request by surrounding inhabitants for a safe crossing of the Mzamba River and included design and implementation of a 140 Meter long suspension bridge in a collaborative manner.

正如Nhle Mbuthuma所指出的那样，社区委员会主席指出：“我们的社区习惯于不从政府那里得到任何东西，但与其他地方相比，我们没有焚烧汽车或暴乱。我们宁愿伸出援手，试图寻找新的途径，因为我们知道政府不能为所有人提供服务。我们可以在中途与他们会面，提供基础设施。“

As Nonhle Mbuthuma, chairperson of the Community Committee points out: “Our community is used to not getting anything from government but in contrast to other places we are not burning cars or riot. We rather reach out and try to find new ways because we know government is not able to provide service for all. We can meet them half way to provide infrastructure.”

总部设在奥地利的NPO建设集体与卡林西亚应用科学大学的两名论文学生合作进行设计和规划阶段。

The Austria based NPO build Collective teamed up with two thesis students of the Carinthia University of Applied Science for the design and planning phase.

一个代表当地社区和客户的指导委员会指导了这一进程，并与必要的实体进行了谈判。部落当局、区委员会和地方利益攸关方的推动力量确保了公众的成功参与和可持续发展。

A Steering Committee representing the local community and client guided the process and carried on negotiations with necessary entities. The driving force of tribal authority, ward committee and local stakeholders ensured a successful public participation and sustainable development.

可与南非和瑞士的工程师(Lüchinger Meyer博士)、环境专家、姆比萨纳市和东开普省的经济发展、环境事务和旅游部联络，提供进一步的支持和授权，以确保技术的准确性和合规。

Further support and authorisation could be established in liaison with engineers from South Africa and Switzerland (Dr. Lüchinger+Meyer), environmental experts, the Mbizana Municipality and Eastern Cape Department of Economic Development Environmental Affairs and Tourism to ensure technical accuracy and compliance.

通过这一与用户、学生和专家的集体做法，为所有参与者提供了知识、文化交流、技能发展和责任。

Through this collective approach with users, students and experts the production of knowledge, cultural exchange, skills development and responsibility is achieved for all participants.

设计过程在很大程度上受到从现场获得的信息、数据和会议以及发送给奥地利的结果的指导。

The design process had been very much guided by the information, data and meetings sourced on site and outcome sent to Austria.

桥梁的一般几何结构是在CUAS与来自Lüchinger Meyer博士的工程师合作为顶层结构开发的，并在现场采用了新的发现。

The general geometry of the bridge was developed at the CUAS in collaboration with engineers from Dr. Lüchinger+Meyer for the top structure and adopted in action with new findings on site.

主要参数是材料的减少，难以到达的建筑工地，与社区成员的自建过程，低维护，适应自然景观，当然跨度宽度和风力和可用性。

Main parameters were the reduction of material, a hardly accessible construction site, self-building process with community members, low maintenance, adaption with the natural landscape and of course span-width and forces of wind and usability.

基础根据连接的必要力以及岩石、沼泽和砂土的不同地基条件进行计算。在三维模型中，几何学被发展、呈现给当地社区并加以调整。

Foundations were calculated according to necessary force of connections and the diverse ground conditions of rock, swamp and sandy earth. In 3D Models geometry was developed, presented to the local community and adapted.

 Calculations

用户、工程师和施工过程本身不断反馈指导设计，并对细节进行微调，直至完成。

Continuous feedback from user, engineers and the construction process itself guided the design with fine-tuning of details until completion.

桥塔之间的跨度为66米，南塔15米在河岸桩基上，北塔13，2米在岩石上。174个吊架连接133，85米长的绳索和两根131，9米的人绳。吊架连接到87个粘合剂上，在混凝土桥头和钢桥头之间装有96个走道单元。

Span-width between Pylons is 66 meters with the southern Pylon of 15 meters grounded on pile foundation on the river bank and the northern pylon with 13,2 meter is grounded on a rock. 174 hangers connect the 133,85 meter carrying ropes with the two 131,9 meter guy ropes. The hangers are connected to 87 binders which carry 96 walkway-elements between a concrete bridgehead and a steel bridgehead.

整个项目费用为20万欧元，仅由赞助者、捐款和个人捐款承担。自2012年以来，在谈判、筹资、设计和建设的几个阶段，这一非凡的基础设施可以在2015年10月作为社区成员和志愿者的自建项目来实现。

Overall project costs of 200 000 Euros have been carried solely by sponsors, donations and personal contribution. In several phases of negotiations, fundraising, design and construction since 2012, this extraordinary infrastructure could be realized with October 2015 as a self-build project of community members and volunteers.

姆赞巴大桥目前正在连接30公里集水区的居民与必要的基础设施，如教育设施、医疗保健、就业和一般食品供应。此外，它也是该地区具有里程碑意义和潜在的旅游景点，促进了社会经济的发展。

The Mzamba Bridge is now connecting residents of a catchment area of 30km to necessary infrastructure such as educational facilities, health care, jobs and general food supply. Further it serves as a landmark and potential tourist attraction in the area to enable socio-economic development.
