What it the Steel Wire Rope (SWR)?
ENGINEERS AUSTRALIA-STEEL WIRE ROPES & WINCHES 3
• I hope that at the end of this presentation we will be able to determine a proper definition for SWR!
• Now, I would like to ask everybody to imagine the world we are living in without the SWR!
• Can you imagine all the town and cities, high rise buildings, bridges and roads, cars, mining and construction machinery, airplanes, space shuttles and space station, dentistry, hospitals, etc. without SWR?
• The world we know and live in wouldn’t exist without SWR.

• What or better say how much do we know about SWR?
• What did we learn about SWR at schools, universities and other institutions?
• ANSWER is simple : NOT MUTCH OR NOTHING!
• Is it correct if we asked a dogman or a crane operator what is the capacity off a 16 mm SWR sling that they would give us a straight answer and advise that it is 8d^2=2000 [kg]. However, if we asked an engineer the same question he or she would not be able to answer the question. The best they would do is ask for a SWR certificate and again try and guess in answering what should have been a simple question.

• In 1847, the Dee bridge in the UK, designed by the famous engineer Robert Stephenson, collapsed under the weight of a railway train only eight months after its completion. A jury analysed the failure and found that the safety factor had been as low as 1.6. The jury decided that the safety actor for future bridges built in the UK should not be less than
6

• The Brooklyn Bridge
John Roebling, the designer of the East River Suspension Bridge, today better known as the Brooklyn Bridge ,was not the only one of the leading bridge builders of his time. He was also the first manufacturer of wire rope on the American continent.

• The suspension ropes on the Brooklyn Bridge were also
designed with a safety factor of 6. During the time the bridge was being built, John Roebling died, and his son Washington Roebling continued his work.
• After the stone towers were completed in 1877, the main cables were spun in place. Wire by wire was pulled over the pylons so that it could adopt its natural catenary, and then it was bundled with the other wires. This procedure, invented by John Roebling, allowed the wires inside the bend to be shorter and the wires outside the bend to be longer than those in the center, guaranteeing a uniform stress distribution over the cable cross section.

Before installation, every steel wire was tested by an independent observer, and wires with insufficient strength were rejected.
In 1878, Washington Roebling noticed that the pile of rejected wire, which should be slightly growing each week, had actually almost disappeared. He started a secret investigation and found that all the rejected wires had been worked into the main cables anyway!

During construction the owner decided to add railway tracks!
SF was reduce again to 4
Roebling decided the bridge was still „safe“ and modified it as requested.

• Time has proved him correct:
Heavy railroad trains crossed the bridge for more than 50 years, and after more than 120 years of heavy daily traffic the main cables of the Brooklyn Bridge are still in place.

• Rope coefficient (C)• C= {Zp/(y *f*R0*(pi/4))}*(1/2) OR
• C= {Zp/(K’*R0)}^(1/2)
K’- the empirical factor of minimum breaking load of a given rope construction as provided by the rope supplier;
R0 - the minimum tensile strength of the wire used in the rope, in megapascals;
Zp - the minimum practical coefficient of utilization
f - the filling factor (factor dependent on rope construction)
y - loss factor y=R1min/R1
R1 min. - the minimum braking strength off rope wires;
R1. - the calculated braking strength of the rope.

• CALCULATION OF MINIMUM ROPE DIAMETER(dmin)
• dmin =C*(SR)^(1/2)
FR - the maximum wire rope tension, in newtons, which is obtained by considering the following factors:
• (a) Rated capacity of the appliance;
• (b) Mass of the pulley block or other lifting attachments that increase rope tension;
• (c) Mechanical advantage of rope reeving;
• (d) Efficiency of the rope reeving;
• (e) The mass of the suspended length of the hoist rope, which shall be included when the load handled is more than 5m below the slewing mechanism of the lifting appliance;
• (f) Load due to acceleration (and retardation) of the load on the hook, if in excess of 10% of the vertical load;
• (g) Included angle of the rope at the upper hoisted position, if the rope angle is greater than 22.5.

WHAT DID WE LEARN FROM THE PREVIOUS EXAMPLE:
• THE SAFETY FACTOR OF THE SWR IS NOT ONLY DATA FOR DETERMANING THE REQUIRED CAPACITY OF THE SWR;
• IS IT POSSIBLE IN REAL LIFE TO HAVE THE SCENARIOS AS SHOWN IN THE EXAMPLE?
• THE SAFETY FACTOR RECOMENDATION OF THE SWR IN MANY STANDADRS AND CALCULATIONS IS LESS

ADVICE• Avoid dynamic loads (easier said than done);
• Don’t modify anything without consulting a qualified and competent engineer/designer;
• Inspect SWR frequently;
• Inspect SWR in the right place:
- in the most fatigue zones;
- at load pick up points;
- at equalizer sheave;
- on the drum;
• Inspect rope end connections;
• Measure the grooves of sheaves & drums;
• Keep an inspection Log Book.
• APPROPRIATE DESIGN, WORK HAZARDS AND RISK ASSESMENT IS REQUIRED.
• DO NOT USE THE SWR IF YOU DO NOT KNOW 100% ALL THE HAZARDS, RELATED RISKS, CONDITION AND CAPACITY OFF THE SWR.
