The construction industry is booming exponentially all across the world. We can often come across scenes where we spot laborers and workers building huge buildings, bridges, roads, etc. This work is very laborious and requires a huge number of people doing all types of risky work by hanging themselves from great heights or even climbing big support structures. We often hear unfortunate events where workers die at construction sites. To provide a solution for this, many companies rent out/ sell rope access.
Places Where Rope Access is required
Apart from construction sites, many other places require people to climb/ work at very high platforms and sites. These include
- Construction
- Building and cementing sites
- Painting and polishing work
- Sculpting
- Monuments and building restoration
- Trekking and climbing
- Commercial cleaning and restoration
- Billboards and advertising
There are many more days to day needs of safety and harness rope systems.
Benefits of using Rope Access
There are multiple benefits of using such safety systems while reaching out for heightened platforms and areas. They reduce/eliminate the risk of slipping, falling, or tumbling from heights and provide hassle-free, comfortable working conditions. They provide more space for a person to sit/stand in a limited area. Apart from that, one needs to move their ladder or repeatedly lift to shift their position, but they can do that while being mid-air with these ropes.
Due to safety and comfort norms, most sectors have been advised to use rope access to work compulsorily safely.
