    Wire Rope PDF

    The document discusses different types of wire rope classifications including left and right lay with regular and lang constructions. It also defines design factor as the ratio between breaking strength and working load limit, using an example of a rope with 50,000 lb breaking strength operating at 10,000 lb load for a design factor of 5 (20% of ultimate strength). Finally, it provides a table suggesting common wire rope types for particular uses and defines abbreviations for grade, construction, lay, and core types.

    Wire Rope Specifications

    The Design Factor being the ratio between the minimum Breaking load of the rope and the working load
    limit (WLL) tells at what percentage of its ultimate strength a wire rope is operating. The Design Factor
    takes into consideration both normal rope wear and potential stresses in various applications. The best
    practice in determining an adequate design factor is to analyze the specific conditions involved in each
    individual installation. The following example shows how to determine the Design Factor: If a rope is
    working under a max. operating load of 10,000 lbs and is having an ultimate strength of 50,000 lbs the
    factor is 5 which means it is operating at 20% of its ultimate strength.

    8.

    Typical wire fractures as a result


    of bend fatigue.

    9.

    Wire fractures at the strand, or


    core interface, as distinct from
    crown fractures, caused by
    failure of core support.

    10.

    Break up of IWRC resulting from


    high stress application. Note nicking
    of wires in outer strands.

    11.

    Strand core protrusion as a result


    of torsional unbalance created by
    drop ball application.
    (i.e. shock loading).

    12.

    Typical example of localized


    wear and deformation created at
    a previously kinked portion of rope.

    13.

    Multi strand rope bird-caged


    due to torsional unbalance. Typical
    of build up seen at anchorage end of
    multi-fall crane application.

    14.

    Protrusion of IWRC resulting from


    shock loading.
