Description Please click this link to see the Omega Anchor on a live project https://youtu.be/gEgkbg_ShSM We would like to thank McAleer & Rushe Ltd for allowing us to produce this short movie on their project at Wembley UK. ANCHOR POINTS FOR FALL PROTECTION Anchor points are a vital part of a fall protection system. they are the critical component that connect Lifelines, Lanyards ,Fall Arrestors and Rescue Kits to the permanent structure for temporary access during construction. A Cast-in anchor system incorporated into the design of the structure offers safety and economical benefits by removing the need to drill for anchor points and eliminating the need to load-test friction reliant anchors before a safety system can be connected to them. Early planning of safety system’s invites collaboration between the Principle Contractor, responsible for implementing a safe system of work, The Frame Contractor who will progressively cast anchors into the structure and External Envelope Contractors who will use these pre-installed Anchor Points to connect Personal Safety Systems, mitigating the need for Drilled Anchors Omega cast-in anchor system for personal fall protection Certification: EN 795 Class A The Cast-in safety anchor for concrete floors is designed to anchor multi-user running-lines (Temporary Horizontal Lifelines -SCS020 ) or for single-user lanyard connection in floors or precast concrete sections. This Cast-In Anchor is suitable for any type of concrete floor slab including Composite floors or Precast Concrete. The anchor consists of a visible plastic protective housing containing a steel element that when embedded in concrete provides a connection point for a webbing sling, that in turn connects to a Running Line (Temporary Horizontal Lifeline- Code SCS020), Lanyard or Work Positioning Lanyard. It can be set in the concrete floor by wiring to rebar or by simply pushing into wet concrete. The Omega Anchor is not removable so accredited to en 795 class A which means that it should be load-tested pre-use to a load of 6kN. Design Support We can provide advise for anchor point positions supported with setting-out plans in autocad format for site users. INSTRUCTIONS SITE-BASED TRAINING
