This is an introduction to mechanical advantage theory. We will be taking a more detailed look at mechanical advantage systems such as
- incorporating friction into mechanical advantage
- exploring other ways of calculating mechanical advantage
- practicing with toothed pulleys/camming devices
- alternate progress capture systems
Priority goes to Foothills Climbing Intermediates and Leaders. After May 1, intermediates from other branches may request permission.
