for connector types.
Cutting/Severing Hazard
! Prevent lifelines/lanyards from
intersecting anchor stems.
Blocking 2x4 Top Chords:
2x8 anchors installed over 2x4 top chords or rafters
require a 24" length of 2x4 blocking. To prevent movement
attach blocking to the underside of the top chord as shown
in
Fig.
3. 2x8 anchors will provide greater resistance
to force loads than a 2x4 anchor.
Personal Protection Equipment / PPE:
PPE refers to the common types of personal safety
equipment typically required for fall protection: Harness,
Lanyard, Lifeline, Shock Absorber, and Rope Grab. The
use of a shock or energy absorbing device is required
anytime there is exposure to a free fall when
SAS
using
anchorage devices.
Component Compatibility:
SAS
anchorage devices are factory ensured for
PPE
compatibility with
manufactured by
must ensure component compatibility when using
equipment supplied by other manufacturers.
Framing Requirements:
Install onto top chords that are 2x4 or greater dimension.
Framing must be capable of supporting a 5,000lb (2,260kg)
load or 2 times the intended fall protection load.** Do not
install onto framing that is damaged or has spliced top chords.
* "Qualified Person" as defined by industrial safety standards. **As specified by OSHA 1926:502(d)(15)(i)(ii) or equal industrial standard.
