Cairns Rope Access

Bit of fun this week hanging out with our mates at SAS global in Townsville helping out with a big sign install job

how is it that we still cant agree on what a sling is rated to.
When I started out I was taught a basketed sling was good for 2 x the single strand strength and a choke was good for half.
When I did my doggers I was taught that when basketed around a round object it was double (square loads and tighter leg angles change the capacity) and a choked sling was good for 80% of single strand. I just bought some Singing Rock slings and they give a whole new set of numbers.

Big day in dubios weather to get this sign up thanks for the hard work guys.

A big day of lifting and lowering things. We hauled over a 100m of copper pipe and one heavy dining table to the sub pentouse of a residential block then recovered a bunch of industrial fans out of this structure.
