A: Top rope climbing refers to a system where the climber is secured from above by a rope controlled by a belayer.
The belayer may remain at the top of the cliff, or the whole party might rappel or scramble to the base of the cliff.
This height depends on how long your rope is. With a typical 50 meter (165 feet) rope, if the belayer remains at the top of the climb, the entire length of the rope can be used.

While a hardware rope might be plenty strong, it's not designed for that use, and most hardware store rope is specifically labeled with a contrainidication against any use to support or protect people (so there's a legal issue there is something goes wrong).
Some may argue that you rope up so you can arrest each others fall - and this is purley an indivual thought as some think ropeing up on moderate terrain (such as most of the DC is w/o crevasse factor) - is more dangerous.
I kind of fall somewhere in between - for example - this was a incident on the trip I went on where someone fell and was succesfully arrested by the team - so it worked and they may have fell to their death had they not arrested here.

 planetFear / Articles / Tips and Tricks / Self Belaying - Top Rope
Once you’ve found the top of the route you want to do, and set up your belay, the best plan is to abseil down the line.
It might be tempting to use a static rope for self-belaying, but a dynamic rope will have more give — which will be appreciated if and when you fall onto it — especially if you choose to clip in with a sling.
Like the Shunt, it can also be moved down the rope easily by grabbing it, and thus suffers from the same problems that the Shunt has — such as reliability in steep situations, and the risk of accidentally grabbing the device and taking the quick way down.
