Zusammenfassung:A suspension member (16) for suspending and/or driving an elevator car of an elevator system includes a plurality of tension members (52) extending along a length of the suspension member (16) including a plurality of fibers (46) extending along the length of the suspension member (16) bonded into a polymer matrix. A jacket (54) substantially retains the plurality of tension members (52). The suspension member (16) is configured to be deformed at a suspension member end to allow for installation of the suspension member end into a termination assembly of the elevator system. A method of installing a suspension member of an elevator system into a termination assembly includes deforming a suspension member end and reforming it to a selected shape, inserting the suspension member end into the termination assembly and curing and/or hardening it, and applying a load thereto or to the socket or the wedge to secure the suspension member end in the termination assembly.
