Calculating Load on Anchors for Three Hammocks

[hammockguy]

Hello -

I was wondering if anyone would help me with some calculations - using the diagram I have attached.

We are trying to hang three hammocks from three achors - and would like some help calculating the load on each anchor.

Even a best guess or ball park answer would be nice - or if you want to be exact you can request more information if needed...

Thanks for your time!

I would say 400lbs, you want a safety margin anyway so no need to worry about splitting the forces.
You also need to account for the instantaneous force when somebody sits down quickly - so you might want to double that.

Hello Hammock Guy,

I would be happy to assist you with your calculations for hanging three hammocks from three anchors. Can you provide some more information about the hammocks and anchors? Such as the weight capacity of each hammock and the weight capacity of each anchor? This will help ensure a more accurate calculation. Additionally, do you have any specific concerns or issues you are facing with this project? Let me know and I'll do my best to help. Thank you!
