knowledge of erecting four (l*) types of rope
bridges, their uses and the methods used
to cross each type,

2.

3.

Standards!

It is necessary, at times while operating in


jungles and/or mountains to cross Over ravines,

of great value.
At the end of the clas3 the stude1&s will know
the importance of rope bridges, &a-t; each is
to be used for and how to are% and use them,

EL Eqlanation
rope bridges;
To move troops with

that imaginl;lCion in using I;lvailable m&erial is only
limiting
factor in constructing
any type bridges),
3. Types of anchor points:
(Note: &plain

a, Natural: Trees and rocks:
of using these as opposed to using man-made anchor
points.
Point out the trees used at this station as
anchor points.
b, Man-made: Buried timber dead man hold fast and

(Note: Explain that an
experienced climber is sent across obstacle to make

APPLICATION
Class wi,U. be broken down into two groups.
Group #l will cross
bridges while group #Z constructs two (2) Z-strand rope bridges
under supervision of AI's for 45 minutes.
Then the groups will
