3 TENSILE FORCE DISTRIBUTION AT ROOF ANCHOR POST An engineer or qualified person must ensure that the roof structure, to which the TWISTFIX is installed, is able to withstand potential tensile and shear forces which may be imposed at the positions where the roof anchor post is attached. The tensile and shear strength requirements are based on a 2:1 safety anchor according to the EN-795:2012 type A, TS-16451:2013, OSHA and OHSA B B Lanyard with Energy Absorber Total Force Force at posts per corner of base plate Force at posts per corner of base plate 2:1 safety factor Lbs (A) kn (A) lbs kn Lbs (B) kn(b) 48 Inch ANSI (1.2 m) Inch ANSI (1.2 m) Inch OSHA (1.8 m) No Energy Absorber WORKING SAFETY REQUIREMENTS To safely work at height a number of topics need to be assessed. One of them being the free fall height. Always make sure there is enough free fall height and it is in accordance with the distance given by the manufacturer. Another safety issue is the correct use and selection of the PPE. These also have to meet and be in accordance with the requirements stated by the manufacturer.
