ISO 19901-6 uses a bending efficiency factor when a wire rope is bending and a wire rope termination factor for according the type of sling eye. Do I have to consider the bending factor also in the bending of the eye or just the termination factor?

As per IMCA, we should check the sling at eye location. Applicable distribution of loading 55-45% as the eye is bent and doubled should be used while checking.
