Exam ple - Maxim um Safe Mass for a 3/8" Wire Rope
The relationship between mass and force (weight) can be expressed as
m= F / g (1)
where
F = force, weight (N)
m = mass (kg)
g = acceleration of gravity (9.81 m/s2)
Maximum safe mass for a 3/8" wire rope where safe load is 10.9 kN can be calculated as
m = (10.9 10 3 N) / (9.81 m/s2)
= 1111 kg
