A more salient approach to determine sling adequacy is the calculation of INCREASED TENSION resulting from the Sling-to-Load Angle. This approach has the distinct advantage of enabling the sling user to determine the required sling strength requirement. The user must first determine the angle and multiply the load weight (per leg) by the tension factor for the specific angle, and the result is the INCREASED TENSION or actual loading on the sling leg(s).
1.Calculate the Sling to Load Angle.
2. Determine the corresponding Tension Factor
3.Multiply the load weight (per leg) by the Tension Factor to determine the increased tension on the sling leg(s).Use the same way above to calculate the application case actual loading for the choker hitch angle webbing sling with their reduction factors
