FALL ARREST ANCHOR POINTS It is strongly recommended to plan anchorage points so that the user can operate within a horizontal distance no greater than the equivalent of 30 degrees from it. The implication of working beyond this distance is the risk of pendulum swing which puts the user at risk of collision with any object in his way. Pendulum swing will occur in a fall event if the anchorage point is not located directly above the fallers head.
