Evaluation Sheet 7-6<br />
Objective: Tie a clove hitch around an object. (NFPA ® 1001, 5.1.2)<br />
Student Name: Date:<br />
Directions<br />
For this skills evaluation checklist, students will tie a clove hitch around an object. Because the open<br />
clove hitch cannot be slipped onto an object with no free end (such as the center of a hoseline), this<br />
method is used on objects with no free end or with a distant free end.<br />
• Piece of rope (for example, 6-foot to 20-<br />
foot [1.8 m to 6 m] length of ½-inch [13<br />
mm] rope)<br />
