Fig. 1.—Sections of wire rope First numeral in 6 by 19 by 6 of (d) refers to number of strands, second to number of wires in a strand,and third to number of filler wires in a strand. Other numerals of (d) refer to location of rings of wiresand similarly for the other sections. which will be described later in detail. The construction of thecable is briefly specified by giving the number of strands in thecable and the number of wires in a strand. For example, a cablehaving 6 strands of 19 wires each, as in (c) of the figure, is brieflydescribed as a 6 by 19 construction. Sometimes additional filler Tests of Wire Rope 7 wires are inserted in such a way as to reduce the open spacesbetween the wires. A third figure is then added and the con-struction is indicated, for example, as 6 by 19 by 6, as in (d) of thefigure. The stran
