Excellent video, I can use this even for novices. The only item that I would need to add is the 6’ for the average worker. I guess you don’t need that dimension as long as your anchor point is over head. I also like your super hero “Harness Man”!😊
Excellent video on how the shock absorber works! However, they left out one serious factor, the height of the person wearing the harness. Serious injury or death could result by not factoring in the person's hight!
My first safety job was with Harmon and telling a guy who had been doing his job longer than I was alive why he had to use fall protection 4 stories up, lol
"All I asked for was a railing , right here" .. "Yeah, I know. I've almost fallen over that thing so many times"....."So what'd they say?" ...: "Get this they said they're worried we'd be leaning all day."
The best video I have found! My question is about fall restraint not fall arrest. Will be looking at more of your videos. Thanks’ for taking the time to make this video! And I support this site. ~M~
This is confusing so if u work at a hight of 6 ft and the lanyard is 6 ft long u will still hit the ground below u,,, why the standard say the maximum accepted free fall is up to 6 ft?
+Arabian_Stalion a worker can fall up to 6 feet. but when designing the fall protection system the qualified or competent person must take clearances below the work area into account. if you only have 6 feet of clearance, you must select a system that will not allow the worker to hit the ground. there are many types of equipment to assist with that. One option in a scenario like that is to have a SRL mounted overhead. in a fall SRLs are required to engage fully within 2 feet, if it is mounted overhead and swing has been taken into account. Or better yet, if possible, fall restraint is a better option. So basically, to answer your question.... the maximum accepted freefall is accepted only in scenarios in which a worker would not hit the level belowl.
Great video. I know this is nit picky I've always found it funny though, my absorber streches more than 6 feet with height of a person. So a harness will do no good. (at six feet)
Interlocking metal barriers are one of the very effective and hassle-free methods for controlling major public occasions. These barriers control group movement and safety play an essential part to keep complex well-organized. Your video is perfect and in compliance with the safety standards of www.linelogic.com/ . I hired this company to have safety and security on my store ad the did very well. Thanks!!!
