🔍 Key Concepts

• Wire rope construction: how individual wires and strands are formed and then laid up into the final rope • The meaning of terms like pre-shaped, lay, and direction of lay in wire rope • Difference between rope structure (how wires are formed) and lay direction (left-lay vs right-lay)

💭 Think About

• Which term specifically refers to wires being bent or formed to the correct curvature before the rope is laid up? • Which option describes the direction that strands are twisted, and which option describes a manufacturing process? • Is "improved" or "composite" a standard technical term for the process of shaping individual wires before laying them up, or do they sound more like general descriptions?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice refers to a manufacturing process that happens before final lay-up, not just a quality description • Separate the idea of direction of twist (left/right lay) from the idea of how the wires are shaped • Ask yourself: in rigging and wire rope terminology, which word is commonly paired with "wire rope" to describe wires that are pre-shaped to their working curvature?
