Many types of knots have been developed to fasten with rope, join ropes, and utilize rope to generate mechanical advantage. (wikipedia.org)
its not such an issue when you're not working with uniform sections but when you are it makes the rope more consistent without having all the knots together all the way along. (makezine.com)
The resulting join is stronger than the equivalent using knots although it usually results in a thickening of the line and if subsequently removed a distortion of the rope. (wikibooks.org)
The short splice retains more of the rope strength than any knots that join rope ends. (wikibooks.org)
Knots can significantly decrease a rope's strength while, in most cases, splicing maintains 100% of the specified rope strength. (samsonrope.com)

back splice (also called an end splice ) - A splice where the strands of the end of the rope are spliced directly back into the end without forming a loop. (wikibooks.org)
The end of the rope with the splice is about twice the thickness of the rest of the rope. (wikibooks.org)
It is typically used for light lines (e.g., the log-line) where a single splice would tend to come undone, the rope being frequently wet. (wikibooks.org)
A cut splice is a join between two ropes, made by splicing the ends slightly apart, to make an eye in the joined rope which lies shut when the rope is taut. (wikibooks.org)
long splice - A splice used to join two rope ends forming one rope the length of the total of the two ropes. (wikibooks.org)
The long splice, unlike most splice types, results in a splice that is only very slightly thicker than the rope without the splice, but sacrifices some of the strength of the short splice. (wikibooks.org)
The long splice allows the spliced rope to still fit through the same pulleys, which is necessary in some applications. (wikibooks.org)
short splice - Also a splice used to join the ends of two ropes, but the short splice is more similar to the technique used in other splices and results in the spliced part being about twice as thick as the non spliced part, and has greater strength than the long splice. (wikibooks.org)
Tapering is also sometimes done to make the thicker splice blend or taper into the rest of the rope. (wikibooks.org)
The staggering brings the splice from twice as thick as the rest of the rope to nearly the same thickness. (wikibooks.org)

It's very important to understand the fundamental differences between the tensile strength of a rope, and a rope's working load. (boatsafe.com)
It's determined by taking the tensile strength rating and dividing it accordingly, making a figure that's more in-line with an appropriate maximum load, taking factors such as construction, weave, and rope longevity into the mix as well. (boatsafe.com)
However, if you want to make an educated guess at the recommended working load of a rope, it usually falls between 15% and 25% of the line's tensile strength rating. (boatsafe.com)
