Working Load Limit Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Working Load Limit (WLL) is:

\[ WLL = \frac{DLL}{SF} \]

Where:

Working Load Limit (WLL): The maximum load that a piece of lifting equipment can safely handle.
Significance: Ensures safety and reliability in lifting operations by accounting for potential uncertainties and variations in load conditions.

Let's say the design load limit (DLL) is 5000 N and the safety factor (SF) is 5. Using the formula:

\[ WLL = \frac{5000}{5} = 1000 \]

So, the Working Load Limit (WLL) is 1000 N.
