In a complex system you have pulleys that move at different rates of speed relative to eachother. For example a 27:1 consisting of a clutch or MPD with 5 single pulleys and 3 prusiks. One 3:1 moves really fast, one moves at about half that speed, and the last 3:1 moves at a crawl. At least that is the easiest way i have found to explain it to people. It is fun to build one and then have the student lift a 650 lb stone with only one hand.

so if you have 9T going to the load, does that mean its 9 times easier to pull the load if you pull on the tail? Also if you have too many T would the rope snap, or does this help the rope snap less?
@perryfire3006
@perryfire3006 Ай бұрын
In theory yes. But due to friction it will never be a perfect ratio. In general however, 1T of effort will produce roughly 9T of force at the load in that configuration. The trade-off (let's use feet for reference) is that you will have to pull 9 feet of rope at the input to raise your load 1 foot. Any rope will break if too much force is applied beyond its ratings. So if you create a MA greater than the strength of the rope then yes it is going to break. However, that would be an interesting experiment to see if a system (due to the amount of rope in the system) can carry a higher load compared to a simple one-to- one ratio. I mean, it's still going to break at some point (or slip) if overloaded but how much more? The channel Hownot2 could answer that question more definitively. That's not a simple question you've asked me and the only way to find out is to break some stuff, haha. My guess is that prusiks or rope grabs would slip first and then the rope would break at the knot at the load. Good question for which I don''t have a definitive answer.

It's funny that the knot you demonstrated as the "don't" knot, is the primary knot that we climbers use for tying the ends of rappel ropes together, so that we can rap a full rope length (on double strands so we can retrieve the rope afterwards by pulling one strand). It's known as the EDK (European death knot - confidence inspiring, i know!). Even though it's probably not as safe as other options, it's easy to tie and inspect, is only used when a dynamic fall load isn't expected, and only on a temporary setup that is checked immediately before use. I think the primary reason though, is the fact that as you demonstrated, when you pull it tight, the entire knot sits to one side, leaving the other side flat, making it easy more likely to ride smoothly over cracks and edges during retrieval. And arguably being stranded on a ledge after the first pitch of a multi-pitch rappel, and not being able to unstuck your rope is higher risk than the unlikely event that your freshly inspected EDK will come undone during static, low-tension rappel loads. For more permanent applications like prussik and cordelette loops, the double fisherman is what I've mostly seen.

@perryfire3006 Ай бұрын
Hasn't Ryan Jenks over on HowNot2 tested the EDK? Bet he has, wonderful channel. I steer away from giving absolutes on anything really, especially related to the rope world. Other than gravity never takes a break, haha. But as your skill increases, just like you've demonstrated, you can take more calculated risks if you are aware of the downsides. Thanks for watching!

@perryfire3006 yeah, I'm pretty sure I've watched some fun video of his with an EDK rolling over itself under tension. I can't recall exactly what his conclusions were. I enjoyed your video and clear demonstration. I'll have to experiment more with the zeppelin bend! And to the point about the EDK being less likely to snag, it's definitely not guaranteed! Some friends of mine had their rope snag while we were rappelling off Devils Tower in the dark. Luckily we had other teams with more ropes, so they were able to get down fine, but they had to wait for some climbers to go up the next day and retrieve their rope on their way past.

@@paulmattinson2109 You have so many options. Being that it's a motor bike I would assume you want to keep your kit small and compact. Look into 8 mm cord for your rope, cordelettes or dyneema slings for your anchor slings and either compact pulleys or even Petzl Rollclips for your haul system. A rope grab could be a 6 mm prussik loop or a Petzl Tibloc. They make tons of variations of carabiners and sizes but I would keep it an oval shape for the most versatility. Or if you have the space just go conventional sizing. Oh and I would definitely have the ability to upgrade my pulling capacity. With one person pulling in mud for example a 3:1 may not be enough so plan for more power. Finally if you do plan to put a change of direction pulley in at the anchor so you can pull and stabilize the bike at the same time then consider a small anchor plate to keep your equipment slightly separated which makes everything operate more smoothly. Happy riding!

Would I be breaking any golden rules if I made my bike the anchor point (so all pulleys are close to bike) and then made a tree effectively the load, that way a 3:1 or a 9:1 would naturally terminate with the rope coming towards the bike and I wouldn't need additional rope or a change of direction pulley. Right I'm of to investigate your suggestions and melt my credit card 😀👍

How would you calculate the force advantage if pulling rope that attaches to itself and is tying tension around an object. For, say, a treenet, you attach pulleys to prusiks to both ends of a rope and pull them towards one another in order to lock that tension in with a knot. This means that both sides are loads and anchors at the same time?
