Design of Temporary Horizontal Life Line (HLL) A. Material Properties Steel Member

The document provides design specifications for a temporary horizontal life line (HLL). It specifies allowable materials and their properties. The design load is 100kg at the line's midpoint. Calculations are shown to check that the line can withstand the maximum arrest force of 600kg, provide sufficient post-fall clearance, and that the steel wire rope and steel posts have sufficient strength and safety factors. Bolt spacing and plate size are also checked against allowable tensile and shear strengths. All checks show the design meets requirements.
