Dear All,
Many thanks for your excellent posts.
It is stated to have a minimum safety factor of 5 on UTS.
When we do the actual calculations however it is actually about 65% of yield. The acceleration/deceleration loadings are about another 20%, so quite appreciable.
This is not what you would...
Hi,
I'm just a simple Materials engineer.
Can anyone please advise as to whether to include for acceleration/deceleration forces in detrmining the acceptability of Chain slings using simple ratings from SWL(or WLL)?
Thanks
A
