Q. What if I don't meet the decking/substrate requirements of a ¾" CDX plywood or 20 ga. metal?
A. There are a variety of different methods. You can use 2x4 bracing
for wood applications or you can lay a 4x4 sheet of wood or decking
down over the top of the area where anchor points are going to be
installed.
Q. What is the proper spacing if I want to run the 4 worker horizontal line system?
A. CB: 12's thru 18's: 20ft. on center SKYHOOKS: 16ft. on center
Q. How many workers does the horizontal cable system hold?
A. 4 in. FALL RESTRAINT per continuous run of cable; 1 in FALL ARREST per continuous run of cable
Q. How do I attach the cable system to the anchors? Do I attach to each one?
A. Terminate the cable on one end by running approx. 2 feet through the
anchor and clamping it back to the remaining cable with at least 3
cable clamps. For Skyhooks, run the cable through the large hole, then
through the small hole, and back through the large hole. * Run the end
of the cable line through each intermediate anchor (for Skyhook, run
only through the large diameter hole) * Do not stretch the cable tight!
Allow 6 to 8" extra line per 20ft. to allow for slack * When selling
the line, also add the 2 feet and the slack * The slack absorbs some of
the impact in a fall
Q. Can I install a CB-1-B on a flat roof?
A. No. Because it is a flat anchor with no upright it cannot be
installed in any waterproof manner. It is intended for vertical
structures.
