Abstract
An analytical method is presented for the determination of length, measured from the fractured end of the wire, in which the wire will be able to carry its appropriate share of the load. The estimate of this effective length is based on the contact loads between the wires, Coulomb type friction, and an invocation of Saint‐Venant's principle. The results are applied to a simple strand and a wire rope with a complex cross section.Keywords
