1) Filler wires are not regarded as load bearing
wires and are therefore excluded from the examination. In ropes having a
number of strands, only the visible outer layer is considered. In ropes
having a steel core, this is regarded as an internal strand and is not considered.
2) In the case of a calculation for number of visible broken wires, the
value is rounded to a whole number. For ropes having outer wires in the
external strands of LARGER size than the norm, the particular construction
is down-graded in the table indicated by an (*).
3) A broken wires may have two visible ends.
