Sling length for a basket hitch with two slings - More of a Geometry question.
I am trying to calculate the length of each sling needed (there are two slings in the picture below). Given diameter of the roll (D), Span at pick points (S) and the angle the slings make with the horizontal plane (A), I need to calculate the sling length needed. Also need to calculate the headroom (HR) as shown in the picture. Although this is for lifting purposes, this is more of a geometry question.
