Date Issued 1990 (iso8601)
Abstract Consolidating and computing the observations and results of earlier works, 192 specifications of combination ropes were worked out as a guideline for standardisation.
The combination ropes are basically of six strand construction with steel/fibre core. The
core is either 6 (6/1) steel wire or 3 stranded PP tape ropes. The rope strands are either
with single layer of wires with a fibre core (8/f and 12/f) or with an outer thicker and
inner thinner layers of wires of same tensile designation with a fibre core (9/6/f, 12/6/f`,
12/9/f' and 15/9/f). The rope strands are covered with 8 strands of`PP soft twisted tape
yarns. Specifications of 96 ropes with fibre and steel wire core separately using
wires of' 120, 140 and 160 tensile designation and nominal diameter ranging between 0.5 and 1.0 mm and computing the rope diameter, mass and breaking load are presented.
