Tip of the Week No. 43 A – 10/11/04. Engineering consultants
Independent engineering consultants are usually registered structural engineers with the ability to read and interpret engineering plans, and to document fall protection anchorages in subsequent drawings.
They may be willing to start from scratch and design a horizontal lifeline system that is non-manufactured.
They subsequently remain responsible for that system, its testing and its maintenance.
See “Introduction to Fall Protection, 3rd Edition” page 341.
