More load terms

Design load

Load to be used for calculation/validation of a specific component according to the standards and the technical literature applicable for the specific component.

Peak load

The maximum force applied to the performer flying system resulting from abnormal conditions, or irregular operation (e.g., effects of emergency stops, uncontrolled stops, drive electronics or power failure, stalling of the actuation equipment, extreme environmental conditions).

Characteristic load

The maximum force applied to the performer flying system resulting from normal intended operating conditions while the system is at rest or in motion. This includes the working load limit (WLL), self-weight including that due to load carrying devices and lifting medium, and forces due to inertia and dynamics in normal use. (See annex note.)
