Now you have the measurements (in particular, the position of the CM) you can use the method in my post #5. You have the relevant distances and the weight force. Write out the equation on paper. On the next line, put in the values you know. Multiply the two numbers on the left and divide by the number on the right (the vertical distance from the fulcrum to the anchor point. The answer will be the Force F you want.Davem27 said:Having researched further,i am perplexed! can anyone help?! i am sure it is a simple equation, but it has me stumped! i have updated my drawing with further info that may help!View attachment 195001
You just need to ascertain whether this 40kg rating refers to shear load or perpendicular load. That is a relevant concern. Hope it's good enough for your purpose.Davem27 said:4 fixings which rate at 10kg per fixing.
An anchor point is a fixed point of support, usually a solid object such as a wall or ground, used to secure or stabilize another object or structure.
Understanding the forces acting on an anchor point is crucial for ensuring the stability and safety of any structure or object that is supported by it. It can also help to prevent damage or failure of the anchor point itself.
The forces acting on an anchor point can be calculated using the principles of physics and engineering. This involves considering the weight of the object being supported, as well as any external forces such as wind or tension.
The forces acting on an anchor point can be affected by a variety of factors, including the weight and position of the object being supported, the type and strength of the anchor point, and external forces such as wind or tension.
To ensure the stability and safety of an anchor point, it is important to carefully consider the design, material, and installation of the anchor point. Regular inspections and maintenance are also necessary to identify and address any potential issues that may compromise its stability.
