fishermans knot
*Correction - The Carrick Bend. The fisherman's knot is a simple whip to join a hook to a line. The Carrick Bend is secure, cannot be "spilled" and doesn't put undue strain on the ropes, decreasing their strength.
Basic answer is that when twisting two ropes together you are causing tension in the fibers of the ropes as they bend around each other. If you don't secure both ends of the two ropes the tension will pull the ropes back to their relaxed state. Think of stretching out and wrapping a rubber band around your finger.
Sheet Bend is a knot for tieing ropes of unequal thickness.
A becket bend is a type of knot used to connect two ropes of different sizes or materials. It is particularly useful for joining a thicker rope to a thinner one, or for attaching a rope to a ring or hook. The becket bend is known for its strength and security, making it an essential knot for many outdoor and maritime activities.
An Albright knot is a bend knot used to join ropes of different diameters and materials to each other.
To bend a tree effectively, gently apply pressure to the tree trunk in the direction you want it to bend, using ropes or straps for support. Gradually increase the pressure over time to allow the tree to bend without breaking. Be patient and careful to avoid damaging the tree.
According to the Ashley book of knots a "Carrick Bend" is properly finished when pulled tight. Also the most secure way, when used at sea, is to have the bitter ends opposite or opposed to each other.Think about it. It will not be proper if it is left in the "decorative" state. It use is to join two hawsers (large mooring lines/ropes) together.
Depending on how permanently the lines are to be joined, several bends will work. The Sheet Bend or Becket is good for temporary connections. For a fast disconnect, a Slippery Sheet Bend is made by slipping a bight of line through to finish the knot instead of the end of the line. Then a pull on the end will open the knot. For a more secure bend the Double Becket will work well. For even more security and a knot that will untie even after severe loading, use two Bowline knots with the loops through each other.
wrought pipe bends means straight pipe bend using rotary draw pipe bender. or pipe bend by any method
Simple, you cant.
A knot. The commonest knot if a REEF knot. for ropes of the same profile. A GRANNY Knot is similar to a Reef knot, but the strands are crossed in opposite directions, making it 'lumpy'. For joining two ropes of different calibres use a Sheet Bend. Splicing is interweaving the strands of two different ropes together.
to fasten, as in a belt or to hook or secure. Also can mean to bend or give way under pressure
To calculate the degree of a bend, you can use the formula: Degree of Bend = (Arc Length / Radius) × (180/π). Measure the arc length of the bend and the radius of the bend. Then, plug these values into the formula to obtain the degree of the bend in degrees. This method is commonly used in fields like metalworking and pipe fitting.
