4 General
In all cranes running wire ropes are stressed by loads (described by a load spectrum) and by bendings. Both
constitute the rope force history, classified in classes S (see 6.3.2). Classes S are used for the selection of
R R
the wire rope and diameters of drums and/or sheaves. They are independent of time.
The proof of competence for static strength and the proof of competence for fatigue strength shall be fulfilled
for the selection of ropes and components. This Technical Specification is for design purposes only and
should not be seen as a guarantee of actual performance.
To ensure safe use of the rope, the discard criteria in accordance with ISO 4309 shall be applied.
The wire rope should be in accordance with EN 12385-4. Rope terminations shall meet the requirements of
EN 13411-1, EN 13411-2, EN 13411-3, EN 13411-4 and EN 13411-6.

6 Proof of fatigue strength
6.1 General
According to test results the fatigue strength of ropes in terms of number of bendings (rope force to number of
bendings relationship) is approximately inversely proportional to the second power of the
