During testing, various methods are used to verify compliance with these standards. For static ropes, the primary control standard is EN 1891.
Below is a detailed explanation of the requirements for Type A ropes and Type B ropes: Minimum Breaking Load Requirements:
Type A: Must withstand 22 kN.
Type B: Must withstand 18 kN.
Figure-Eight Knot Load-Bearing Requirements:
Type A rope: The figure-eight knot must support a load of 1500 kg for 3 minutes.
Type B rope: The figure-eight knot must support a load of 1200 kg for 3 minutes.
Fall Test with Fall Factor 1:Type A rope: Must withstand 5 successful falls with a load of 100 kg and a fall factor of 1. Type B rope: Must withstand 5 successful falls with a load of 80 kg and a fall factor of 1.
Impact Force Requirement for Fall Factor 0.3:
Type A/B: The impact force must be less than 600 daN (6 kN) for a fall factor of 0.3.
Load Elongation Rate Requirement: Type A/B: Elongation must be less than 5% under a load of 50–150 kg.
Core Share Requirement:The core must account for 50%–70% of the rope’s composition.
