The present invention relates to a hybrid pipe (1) for stay cable, comprising a tubular shaped wall (15), the wall having an internal face (18) and an external face (19). The hybrid pipe (1) further comprises at least one reinforcing element (12, 22), the reinforcing element (12, 22) being provided at the wall (15) to form the hybrid pipe (1) such that the hybrid pipe (1) has a higher mechanical properties/resistance such as higher buckling resistance, higher tensile strength and/or a lower thermal dilatation than the wall (15) itself. The present invention also relates to a cable-stayed system comprising such a hybrid pipe (1) and a method of manufacturing such a hybrid pipe (1).

The invention relates to a rope made of a textile fibre material for applications in which a diagonal pull may occur, characterized in that the rope is a core/sheath rope the core (1) of which and the sheath of which are composed essentially of a textile fibre material the core (1) of which is stranded and which exhibits a force-fitting winding with a tensile element (2, 2′, 2″) between the core (1) and the sheath.

The present invention discloses an encapsulated duct cable with identification tags and a manufacturing method thereof. The logging encapsulated duct cable comprises an encapsulation layer. The cross section of the encapsulation layer is polygonal or arc-shaped. At least one cable protective tube and at least one oil-liquid tube are arranged in the encapsulation layer. A cable is arranged in the cable protective tube. Identification tags with different color identifiers are respectively arranged on one side of the cable protective tube and one side of the oil-liquid tube in one to one correspondence. The manufacturing method of the logging encapsulated duct cable mainly comprises three steps of machining the cable protective tube and paving the cable pavement, machining the oil-liquid tube, and machining the encapsulation layer. The present invention has double functions of conveying the oil and the liquid and transmitting the data.

An elevator load bearing member includes a plurality of load bearing cords and a jacket at least partially surrounding the cords. The jacket includes a layer received against the cords, and a self-healing component. A method of making an elevator load bearing member is also disclosed.

The disclosure relates to a cable (100) comprising a core (102) and a plurality of reinforcing elements (107) arranged around the core (102) so as to cover the core (102), wherein each reinforcing element (107) includes at least a bundle of reinforcement fibers compriseing at least one fiber and a thermoset matrix impregnating the bundle of fibers, wherein each reinforcing element (107) is individually tubed with a thermoplastic coating (112).

A deicing device for a sheath of a structural cable, the structural cable comprising tendons housed in the sheath, the deicing device includes a base; a bearing element; and a power system configured to press the bearing element against the tendons while the base is in contact with an inner surface of the sheath, and to generate vibrations between the bearing element and the base.

A system for protecting a climbing device from contacting a wall includes a barrier device defining an eyelet, an anchor anchored to the wall, and a cord. The barrier device is configured to wrap around the climbing device such that the barrier device extends between climbing device and the wall and forms a sleeve that encircles the climbing device. The barrier device protects the climbing device from the wall. The cord extends through the eyelet and is coupled to the barrier device and the anchor such that the barrier device is anchored to the wall and in a desired position relative to the wall. The barrier device is configured to move relative to the climbing device, and the cord limits movement of the barrier device relative to the climbing device.
