Anchor Points

Atlantic Fall Protection offers a wide variety of permanent and temporary single point anchors for fall protection. Single point anchors are a more cost effective solution then horizontal lifelines and other engineered fall protection systems, but are only effective in designated work areas in which a wide range of motion is not needed. Selection of the appropriate anchor point and user equipment is essential when designing a safe and compliant anchor point system.

ANSI and OSHA recognize two types of anchorages; those that are certified and those that are non-certified.

Free Standing Constant Force Post

This post is used on flat roofs up to a maximum pitch of 5º where it is impractical to install permanent fall protection on the roof or supporting structure.

Relevant ANSI and OSHA Standards:

• ANSI Z359.2 (Section 5.2.3.1) It is preferred that all fall anchorages be designed or selected by a qualified person. However, the standard recognizes that this may be impractical in some situations. This standard provides that a competent person may supervise the selection, installation, use, or inspection of non-certified anchorages.

• 29 CFR 1926.502(d)(15) & 1910.66 (Appendix C) Anchorages to which personal fall arrest equipment is attached shall be capable of supporting at least 5,000 pounds (22.2 kN) per employee attached (for non-certified anchorage points), or shall be designed, installed, and used as part of a complete personal fall arrest system which maintains a safety factor of at least two, under the supervision of a qualified person (for certified anchorage points).
