Handbook of fibre rope technology

Emeritus, UMIST, UK and N O\'Hear, Tension Technology International, The Netherlands

The field of fibre rope technology has witnessed incredible change and technological
advance over the last few decades. At the forefront of this change has been the
development of synthetic fibres and modern types of rope construction. This handbook
updates the history and structural mechanics of fibre rope technology and describes
the types and properties of modern rope-making materials and constructions.

Following an introduction to fibre ropes, the Handbook of fibre rope technology
takes a comprehensive look at rope-making materials, rope structures, properties and
mechanics and covers rope production, focusing on laid strand, braided, low-twist
and parallel yarn ropes. Terminations are also introduced and the many uses of rope
are illustrated. The key issues surrounding the inspection and retirement of rope
are identified and rope testing is thoroughly examined. The final two chapters
review rope markets, distribution and liability and provide case studies from the
many environments in which fibre rope is used.

The Handbook of fibre rope technology is an essential reference for everyone
assisting in the design, selection, use, inspection and testing of fibre rope.
