Behavior of Stationary Wire Ropes in Tension and Bending
This experimental investigation of the behavior of wire ropes in tension and bending was undertaken in order to determine their strengths and the stresses produced under load, and to compare these values with those given by the several formulas in common use. Altogether, nine tension and thirty-six bending specimens were tested over sheaves of four diameters. The ropes selected were 1 in. in diameter, with hemp centers, and the tests included studies of regular and Lang lay ropes, of 6 × 7 and 6 × 19 construction preformed and non-preformed types, and of two different grades of steel. Important results are contained in the curves for loss of strength in bending and for the variation in modulus of elasticity of the rope under pre-stressing, and a comparative summary is given of stresses and strengths as observed and as computed by several formulas.
