Lead angle : 𝜆
Lead : 𝑙
Compressive Force (Vertical load) : 𝐹
Horizontal force required to raise the load : 𝑃𝑅
Horizontal force required to lower the load : 𝑃𝐿
Opposing frictional force : 𝑓𝑁 (coefficient of friction × N)

Raising load Lowering load



TORQUE REDUIRED TO
RAISE THE LOAD IF 𝑓 = 0









Bearing stress


Statically indeterminant :
