The work of preparing International Standards is normally c
8、arried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the wor
9、k. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare Inter
10、national Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of th

Actual diameters may vary for a given reference number.
32、5.2 Minimum core tenacity The rope minimum core tenacity shall be 0,47 N/tex, measured according to Annex B. All samples tested shall comply with this minimum value. 5.3 Dynamic stiffness at end of bedding-in The dynamic stiffness at the end of the bedding-in sequence, obtained at the time of the pr
33、ototype testing in step 8 of the rope test procedure in B.3.1, shall be between 18 and 28. NOTE A different range may be specified by the purchaser. BS ISO 18692:200755.4 Torque properties 5.4.1 Torque-neutral rope A rope is considered torque-neutral if it has a torque factor, Q, of less than 0,005.
34、 TQ = d Fwhere Q is the torque factor; d is the rope diameter, expressed in millimetres (mm); F is the force applied to the rope, expressed in kilonewtons (kN); T is the torque generated by the rope, expressed in newton metres (Nm). The test method to demonstrate torque-neutral behaviour is defined
35、in B.6.1. Parallel construction ropes having braided sub-ropes or an equal number of left lay and right lay twisted sub-ropes which are all identical in every respect except for twist direction are inherently torque-neutral (see also 6.2). These constructions need not have their torque generation ve
36、rified. 5.4.2 Torque-matched rope A rope is considered torque-matched if its torsional characteristic over the design load range is essentially the same as that of the wire rope to which it is to be connected. When tested as described in B.6.2, the angular rotation in the wire rope element shall not
37、 exceed 5 per rope lay. 5.5 Cyclic loading performance The rope shall have demonstrated performance under cycling loading following the requirements of 7.1.6 and B.5. 5.6 Particle ingress protection If specified, the rope shall be constructed with a protection of the core against the ingress of part
38、icles having a size greater than 20 m (microns) or as agreed between involved parties. Testing of the protection shall be performed in accordance with B.7. The tests shall be performed on one rope size within the range of Table 1. 6 Requirements Rope layout and construction 6.1 General The typical s
39、ection of a rope shall comprise a rope core, providing intended strength and stiffness, and a cover. BS ISO 18692:20076 6.2 Type of construction The rope shall be of one of the following types of construction: torque-neutral construction (type TF); torque-matched construction (type TM). The type of
40、rope shall be specified by the purchaser. NOTE Torque-neutral ropes are intended for use in mooring systems together with chain or torque-neutral spiral strand wire ropes. Torque-matched ropes are intended for use in mooring systems together with six-strand wire ropes or other non torque-neutral wir
41、e ropes. Typical constructions are illustrated in Figures E.1 and E.2. 6.3 Rope core 6.3.1 The total number of yarns in the rope shall be at least the number specified in the rope design specification. 6.3.2 Splices are not allowed in the rope core nor in sub-ropes, except for those at the end termi
42、nations. Strands shall be uninterrupted over the length of the rope, with no splice or strand interchange. NOTE Yarns may be joined if necessary. 6.4 Protective cover 6.4.1 A protective cover shall be provided around the rope core to protect the rope core from mechanical damages (mainly abrasion) du
43、ring handling and in service. The protection shall be water-permeable. 6.4.2 A polyester braided protective cover shall have a minimum thickness of 7,0 mm. Strand interchanges, i.e. the overlapping continuation of an interrupted strand with another identical strand following the same path, are permi
44、tted if they are properly staggered. 6.4.3 If an alternative protective cover is used, it shall demonstrate a level of protection equal to that of a polyester braided cover. 6.4.4 A braided cover shall include coloured strands forming a pattern so that rope twist during installation or in service ca
45、n be identified. There shall be a minimum of one S coloured strand and one Z coloured strand to form a cross on the rope. An alternative protective cover shall be fitted with an axial stripe of contrasting colour, or other means to identify rope twist during installation or in service. 6.5 Terminati
46、ons The terminations shall be made of an eye splice plus abrasion protection materials. NOTE There may be other terminations provided that they do not jeopardize the rope performance. The dimensions and arrangement of the eye shall match the diameter and groove shape of the thimble (or other interfa
47、ce piece) to be used for end connections, and shall be the same as for the rope prototype testing. BS ISO 18692:20077In the splice area, the integrity and the continuity of rope cover and particle-ingress protection, if fitted, shall be preserved or restored. The eye and the splice area shall be fur
48、ther covered by an abrasion protection coating such as polyurethane. Each termination shall be made according to the manufacturing practice as described in the termination specification. 6.6 Length of rope The standardized bedded-in lengths of the rope sections shall be multiples of one hundred metr
49、es (100 m), calculated in accordance with 7.2.2, under 20 % of MBS, unless otherwise agreed on the purchase order or contract. The calculated length of supplied rope shall be within 1 % of the specified length. For each supplied rope, the actual length at the reeling tension or during manufacture shall be reported as an indicative value. The length of short sections intended as inserts shall be mutually agreed between the purchaser and the manufacturer. Adequate extra length shall be manufactured in order to prep
