The objective of this research project was to determine how winder design parameters affect the safe working life of rope operating of drum winders with the view to refine requirements in the code of practice for the performance, operation, maintenance and testing of such winders. The major part of the work was the inspection of ropes on selected winders to establish the progress of rope deterioration
