Highline Tension Calculator
You may use the calculator below to calculate the force on each anchor in a highline set up. You will need to input values for the span, sag as depicted in the image, as well as the weight of the load.
If your anchors are offset, you may like to use the Two Point Anchor Calculator or the Deviation Anchor Force Calculator.
