Dear All
Please help me in clear the concept about the following:
In lot of write up I have read the below snetnace:
Anchor points for fall arresting systems (including lifelines) must be capable of withstanding a 5000 lb. (2300 kg) load per person attached.
But how we are coming to this conclusion?
Is it really required to ensure a lifeline or anchorage point having a strenght to withstand 2300 Kg?
When a normal person (Weight of 60 or 70 Kg) falls how much force is generating? How we can calculate the same?
Hope to get a great participation from all of you in the thread...
Regards,
Dipil Kumar V
