Description
Summary:This article describes a technical proposal of anchoring determined for a horizontal belaying system, which was developed to increase the safety of crane operators and maintenance staff in their movements and work at heights. This belaying system can be installed either on the common, already existing footbridge of the overhead travelling crane or on the crane track. Loading of the steel wire rope was investigated by the simulation figurines during various assumed loading regimes. The figurines were attached to the rope belaying system by means of the standard personal protective equipment and the calculation process was realised using the non-linear dynamic FEM analysis.
