Maintain a good line of sight so that you know where you are in relation to the roof s edge.
Roof safety life line.
The safety monitor is always a competent person 29 cfr 1926 500 b.
Ensure that the fall protection and shingle bundles are secure before setting foot on the roof.
Or on roofs 50 feet 15 25 m or less in width the use of a safety monitoring system alone is permitted 29 cfr 1926 501 b 10.
Pitch the steeper the roof is the easier the fall.
The fls horizontal lifeline has created a revolution in fall arrest system design through the use of energy absorbing anchorage posts.
The lifeline is usually attached to the structure at set intervals and can often change direction to follow the profile of the roof edge or other fall hazards.
Poor line of sight ridge vents chimneys shingle bundles may block egress on a roof.
This way those responsible for the safety of the system or the safety of people working on the roof are less reliant on workers using the system correctly.
This fall protection system can be used for continuous fall restraint or fall arrest coverage around roof leading edges and openings.
A lifeline track that follows the contours of the roof at fixed distance from the edge requires limited user knowledge.
Because workers are continually attached to the safety line horizontal lifelines make it possible for workers to safely access all areas of a rooftop.
The warning line system shall consist of ropes wires or chains and supporting stanchions 29 cfr 1926 502 f 2.
