The major cause of anchor buoy pendant wire failures is __________.
• how metal fatigue and long-term wear affect wire pendants • the typical environment an anchor buoy pendant operates in (water, splash zone, air) • difference between gradual damage vs. sudden one-time damage
• Which of these choices acts on the wire pendant all the time, even when seas are calm? • Which factor is most likely to work slowly and invisibly until the wire finally fails? • Think about what most wire inspections are trying hardest to detect and prevent on mooring and anchor systems.
• Identify which option represents a continuous, long-term degradation process rather than a short event. • Ask yourself which factor is the primary concern during routine wire maintenance and inspection. • Eliminate any options that are mainly associated with single incidents or rare events rather than ongoing damage.
