Default Rig Tension...

How would you go about determining the correct tension for shrouds and stays
on a vessel. Some how having them all the same tension just doesn't cut it.
I have the standard 1x19 strand and can't find the breaking strength. Should
my cap shrouds be tensioned more than the lower shrouds. I do have a Loo's
Tension gauge.
