Awesome informations and knowledges about traction force for the anchor point thanks you. and yeah you like wood in the USA cheap and fast to build. So i guess last step fix the setup and show a picture and anyways will test it by pulling hard with a wrench and see what happen. I think nothing will moove for safety mesure i will add some chimical cement to the screw to lock them into the wall. i will go for some screw like that with chimical cement it won't moove https://www.accu.co.uk/en/imperial-s...YaAuZFEALw_wcB
EDIT: i got room up to 2.8 meter to the roof
So I am looking at a 14' diagonal in my office and would like suggestions for a height on my Eyelet screws? I will use a Marlin spike hitch on my sewn in beetle buckle suspension. I need to make this a one and done if possible. I have a Dutchware chameleon. Any thoughts??

Zaraelyr, "roof weight" is compression weight on the blocks - that's what they are designed for. The pull of a hammock is a shear force. That is NOT what the cinderblocks are designed for. I believe the shear stress would be applied to the mortar between the cinder blocks. There are YouTube videos of hammock fails of cinder block columns pulled down by a hammock hang. To equate the structural integrity of a suspension system at place/time X with a setup at place/time Y might not be the best comparison. It reminds me of a person playing Russian Roulette and saying, because he survived the first trigger pull, "I was safe that time so I should be safe on the next pull." Just Say'n.
In order to see what few have seen, you must go where few have gone. And DO what few have done.
