KNOT TERMS
• Working end — Used for forming knot
• Standing part — Between working and running ends
• Running end — Used to hoist, pull, belay, etc.
• Bight — Loop that does not cross over itself
• Loop — Side of bight crossed over or under standing part
• Round turn — End of rope continued around top of loop until standing lengths are parallel
PRIMARY KNOT APPLICATIONS
• Overhand knot A foundation knot for beginning other knots A safety knot or backup to secure other knots (particularly
those of synthetic rope) to prevent the working end from slipping back through the knot and causing it to fail
• Half hitch Hoisting tools Stabilizing tall objects
PRIMARY KNOT APPLICATIONS (cont.)
• Bowline — Various utility and life safety (rope rescue harness) applications
• Clove hitch Attaching ropes to objects Hoisting (with overhand knot)
• Figure-eight — Foundation knot for other knots in family
• Figure-eight follow through — Joining ropes of equal diameters
PRIMARY KNOT APPLICATIONS (cont.)
• Figure-eight on a bight — Securing a loop in middle or end of a rope for a safety line, safety harness, litter and rescue equipment, anchor lines
• Double-loop figure-eight — Constructing a rope rescue harness
• Becket bend (sheet bend) Joining ropes of unequal diameter Joining rope to chain

BOWLINE KNOT
• Is used to form a loop that will not constrict the object it is placed around
• Is untied easily
• Shares degree of acceptability in both life safety and utility applications

CLOVE HITCH
• Is easily formed of two half hitches
• May be used with overhand safety knot for hoisting tools and equipment
• May be formed anywhere on the rope
• Withstands pull in either direction without slipping, when properly tied
BECKET BEND

BECKET BEND
• Is not likely to slip when the rope is wet
• Is dependable and useful for fire service utility applications

FIGURE EIGHT KNOT
• Has replaced the bowline since the introduction of synthetic rope
• Is not as likely as the bowline to damage the rope
• Is stronger than the bowline
• Is an easy knot to tie, untie, inspect, and keep neat

HOISTING A LADDER
• Use bowline or figure eight on a bight.
• Place knot through two rungs of ladder about one-third down from top.
• Place loop over top of ladder.
