8000 tons equals 8000 tons. 8 tons equals 8000 pounds.
11639 tons = 11639 tons.
An imperial ton is 2000 pounds, so to convert from tons to pounds, you can multiply by 2000. If you mean metric ton, that's slightly more than 2000 pounds.
The initials SWL mean Safe Working Load
SWL means Safe Working Load
Cranes typically are designed with a FoS (Factor of Safety) of 5x the MBL (Minimum Breaking Load). So if the weakest part of the structure failed (e.g. in tension, compression or shear) at e.g. 100kN (10 metric tons), then the swl would be 10t / 5 = 2 tons
The SWL stands for - Safe Working Load
TO CALCULATE THE SWL OF LIFTING WIRE ROPE THE FORMULAE CAN BE USED- 8*D2 WHERE 'D' IS THE DIAMETER OF WIRE ROPE IN 'mm' THIS WILL GIVE THE APPROX SWL (SAFE WORKING LOAD CAPACITY)

1.4-ton
whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
1.6 ton The answer would be 40T, 1.6T is the WLL or SWL of an 8T nominal breaking strength rope.
If you mean 5 short tons (US), then you're absolutely right.However, if you mean metric tons, then not.5 metric tons = 11023,113 pounds
SWL = Ultimate (Breaking) Strength/Design (Safety) Factor Usually the safety factor used in lifting equipment is 5:1. Example: If you are using a 0.5" Improved Plow Wire Rope the ultimate strength is 11.5 tons. SWL = 11.5/5 = 2.3 tons The safety factor should go higher if there is possibility of injury or death. Example: Elevators use a 20:1 safety factor.
if you mean 64,000 pounds then it is 32 tons.
