VLL RL

The document contains input parameters for calculating the performance of a vertical lifeline (VLL) system for a worker. It includes the length and material properties of the VLL, activation distance of the self-retracting lifeline (SRL), heights and masses of the worker and connector, and the maximum arresting force of the SRL clutch. The outputs section calculates the free fall distance, maximum force on the system, extension of the lanyard in the SRL during arrest, and required clearance for the system.
