This specification stipulates the installation, inspection, maintenance and scrapping standards for steel wire ropes used in aerial ropeways. This specification applies to steel wire ropes for single-cable circulation, double-cable circulation and reciprocating passenger and freight aerial ropeways, but not for temporary freight ropeways and forestry ropeways. The working life of the wire rope varies with the working conditions and uses of the aerial ropeway, and its design selection should comply with the relevant national standards. In the provisions of this specification, if "freight ropeway" or "passenger ropeway" is not specified, both are used in common. If it is not specifically stated that it is "loading cable", "loading traction cable", "traction cable", "balance cable", and "tension cable", then the five types of steel wire ropes are common.
