BUYER'S GUIDE
Selecting a Safe Anchorage Point
The anchorage is the A in the ABCD of fall protection: the point on an independent structure that secures the fall protection device or lanyard. Anchor devices are classified under EN 795:2012 as Type A to E, and every anchor must be strong enough to hold a user in a fall.
- A single anchor point should be rated to at least 12kN for one person; for two people on one anchor the minimum is 21 kN, and no more than two people may use a single anchor.
- Attach at or above shoulder level and as directly overhead as possible, because a low or side anchor increases the fall distance and can cause a pendulum swing into obstacles.
- If unsure of the load rating, consult an engineer; good anchorages are I-beams and other solid fixtures, and you should never anchor to cable hangers, light fixtures or anything not designed for a sudden heavy load.
- Make sure the anchor is approved by the employer or an engineer and check it for damage before connecting; tag out a damaged anchor until a competent person has inspected it.
- Only authorised personnel may install and certify roofing anchors.
