Fibre ropes are linear flexible products that mainly transmit tensile forces. Characteristic of ropes is a construction of at least three components. Among others, rope components can be yarns, threads or monofilaments. Typically, fibre ropes are produced by laying, twisting, braiding or a combination of these basic techniques. The standard helps to deepen the understanding of the not always easy to understand element 'fibre rope'.
