Our Project has currently selected 6 inch PVC-U conduit (internal dia 150mm) which has 12 sub-conduits (1inch each, external dia 31mm) at 90 degree angle entry into the building and a bending radius of 914mm.

The FOC we have selected (24 core and 48 core) with Maximum pulling force / Tensile strength = 2700 Newton, Cable outside diameter, nominal = 16.50mm and Cable weight, approx = 302kg/km, Minimum bending radius: - Under maximum tension = 20 x Cable O.D.

I would like to calculate if this FOC shall be safe to pull within the subduct at 90 degrees as mentioned. I have been trying to get online calculation software for FOC but to no avail.
