Horizontal Life Line Calculation

This document summarizes the specifications for a horizontal lifeline system with a single 40 meter span. It lists details of the 3/8 inch cable such as its weight, breaking strength, and construction. It also provides calculations for the initial and maximum tensions on the cable, maximum deflection, and horizontal and vertical reactions at the anchorage points. The maximum arresting force is specified as 10 kN.
