Zanshin - I agree, shock calculations are far more complex, such as those calculated for the keel and hull and shock factors used in the design of naval surface combatants. I was looking quickly and simply at the issue, which still remains...how strong is too strong, and do, or should, the regulations incorporate dynamic jacklines such as are used in shipyards, construction sites, etc.
