1 Summit Anchor Company, Inc. Safety From The Top Down Roof and Wall Safety/Tie-Back Anchors Suspended Access Systems and Fall Protection
2 Overview National Safety Standards OSHA regulations specifically require independent anchorages (suspension anchor and fall arrest anchor) capable of supporting 5,000 pounds when suspended maintenance work is performed. ANSI/IWCA I-14.1 (3.9 Anchorages) clearly states Building owners and window cleaning contractors shall not allow suspended work to be performed unless it has been determined that the building has provided identified and certified anchorage. Although roof and wall anchors alone may not satisfy all of the safety requirements of your structure, when properly designed and installed they can play a vital role in achieving compliance with both OSHA requirements and ANSI I-14 standards. Summit Anchor Company can provide anchorage that will facilitate whatever exterior maintenance might be required on your building. Some common examples of this type of maintenance are: Window cleaning Construction of the building Waterproofing and caulking Façade pressure washing Any interior or exterior maintenance where suspended work must be performed. 2
3 Anchors may be used to tie back boatswain chairs or portable outrigger beams for swing stage operations. Regardless of what mechanical suspension device may be used by your exterior maintenance contractor, there must be two independent means of support for each suspended worker. This is in accord with ANSI/IWCA I-14.1 ( C) which states: Anchorage of the lifeline should be independent of any portable support device. OSHA regulations and ANSI Safety Standards require two independent anchors for each suspended worker. One anchor suspends the workers equipment (i.e. boatswain chair) the other anchor is used to tie off fall arrest equipment or safety line. Summit Anchor Company can assist you to design a system to comply with OSHA and ANSI I-14 requirements. By utilizing our expertly engineered anchors along with a well designed anchor location roof plan, we provide the highest level of safety for suspended workers. Why Specify Summit Anchor Company? Our anchor eyes are drop forged, resulting in a stronger anchor than the common U-bar type anchors. According to the Forging Industry Association: Forgings have grain oriented to shape for greater strength. Machined bar and plate may be susceptible to fatigue and stress corrosion because machining cuts material grain pattern. In most cases, forging yields a grain structure oriented to the part, resulting in optimum strength, ductility, and resistance to impact and fatigue. Here are some other reasons... Corrosion resistance Our anchors are completely hot-dipped galvanized with stainless bolts. Hollow Structural Sections (HSS) are filled with molded urethane insulation to prevent condensation. Such condensation protection is absolutely essential in order to prevent corrosion when exposed to the elements found on the roof. Other manufacturers seldom fill their HSS or pipes with molded urethane insulation. 3

No apparent permanent deflection is observed when testing our standard 10 tube anchors to 5,000 lb. CLICK HERE to view test report. OSHA/ANSI compliance Our anchors have been engineered and tested to comply with current OSHA regulations and ANSI I.14.1 safety standard for fall arrest and suspended maintenance. Custom design Our roof and wall anchors are designed for a variety of permanent attachments to reinforced concrete or structural steel. Summit roof and wall anchors can also be modified to fit virtually any structure. Roof flashings Available in stainless steel, copper, or spun aluminum (Figure 1) with Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (E.P.D.M.) top and bottom grommets that do not require messy caulking around anchor (Figure 2).

Anchors may fail due to improper installation or inadequate supporting structure. Serious injury or death may result from anchor failure. Installation of anchors must be performed under the supervision of a professional engineer with experience in suspended access equipment. Additionally, anchors shall be tested under the supervision of a P.E. and certified before being placed into service. 6

10 Design and Layout Compliance with OSHA regulations and ANSI standards requires more than the best anchors on the market. Careful planning is required before installation of any roof or wall anchors. Factors to be considered include structural building elements and layout requirements before proceeding with an anchor location plan. Minimum Requirements Current OSHA/ANSI standards require compliant fall protection and suspended maintenance equipment on all buildings. 1) OSHA/ANSI standards require 2 independent anchors for each worker (one for rigging of suspension equipment and one for personal fall arrest) whenever suspended work is performed. 2) OSHA/ANSI standards state anchors must be capable of supporting 5000 lbs. load. 3) OSHA/ANSI state that anchors should not be placed within 6 ft. of the roof edge unless a 42 Wall anchors may be mounted on structurally adequate in. parapet exists or fall protection is provided to curbs and parapets access those anchors safely. 4) ANSI I14.1 Window Cleaning Safety Standard requires that anchor spacing should not exceed 12 ft. Preliminary Anchor Layout Procedures Before placing the first anchor on your building, pertinent rigging and structural factors need to be taken into consideration. A careful examination of the architectural/structural plans is required to determine what type of anchorage should be used and where it must be placed. This exam should include the following: 1) Identification of all areas needing access by suspended workers. These areas are, but not limited to: a) Window locations that may require access by suspended workers (any window above 20 ft.). b) Building façade requiring periodic maintenance (i.e. re-caulking and waterproofing) will generally require suspended work to be performed on the building. c) Any other part of the building requiring access by workers above 6 ft. from grade. 10 Buildings over 300 ft. are well suited for a permanently installed powered platform, because Rope descents shall not exceed 300 feet (ANSI/IWCA I.14.1, Para ).
11 d) Additional building features that may require special access equipment. Such features may include buildings over 300 ft., overhangs, atria, and sloped roofs. 2) Identification of location where workers will access anchors. Verify that safe access is provided to these areas by doors, roof hatch etc. Examples of these locations where anchors may be located are as follows: a) Main roofs b) Lower roofs c) Balconies 3) Determine if rope descent systems or swing stage equipment or both will be used to access the buildings façade. 4) Verify that the parapet wall is of sufficient strength to support the loads imposed (when rope decent systems are used) although OSHA or ANSI guidelines do not specify 1,800 lbs. is considered acceptable. Parapet must be capable of supporting the load imposed by workers. Some buildings may require the addition of a davit or portable outrigger arm to eliminate the load to a non load-bearing parapet wall. Parapets must be capable of supporting the load imposed by workers. A non load-bearing parapet may incorporate davits or outrigger arms to avoid overloading to the parapet. Portable Outrigger Examples as follows: a) Roof slabs b) Concrete beams c) Concrete curbs d) Steel beams e) Mechanical roof supports 5) Examine structural drawings for areas suitable for attaching roof or wall anchors. Note that OSHA and ANSI requirements state anchors must be capable of supporting 5,000 lbs. without failure (see Specifications for more detail). 6) Lay out anchors in accordance with anchor layout guidelines. Anchors need to be situated in a way so as to provide workers ropes or cables unobstructed access when rigging. 11
12 Anchor Layout Procedure 1) Place anchors in line with work areas requiring service (see diagram below). 2) Provide two independent anchors for each descent. 3) Anchors may be offset no more than 15 degrees from perpendicular, provided displacement of the rope under load may be eliminated (see anchor spacing chart). Note: ANSI I.14.1 bases anchor layout on tie backs placed no more than 15 degrees from a perpendicular line with the suspension point. It has been interpreted that a lanyard can increase the anchor spacing, but, this will increase the fall arrest distance, so the presumed offset of a workers lanyard should be kept to a minimum. This is in harmony with OSHA regulations which state that fall arrest distances should be no more than 6 ft. 4) Do not place anchors behind obstructions such as HVAC units. Anchor location and spacing may need to be adjusted to avoid such obstructions. 5) Do not place anchors within 6 ft. of parapet wall unless a 42 in. parapet or guardrail is provided. Suggested Anchor Spacing Distance Between Anchors and Point of Suspension (Drop) 12
