Abstract
A fall restraint kit for rope access work may include a length of rope (1), at least two rope braking devices (2a, 2b) permanently attached to the rope, at least two rope ascender devices (3) at least five karabiners (4, 5) at least two rope pulleys (6) and at least two slings (7, 8). The application discloses improved roping arrangements suitable for working at heights using a number of those components. In one basic fall restraint arrangement a first rope braking device (2a) is attached to an anchor point (18), a second rope baking device (2b) is attached to a person (22), typically via a harness and a length of rope (1) extends between the first and second rope braking devices. In the event of a fall, or accident, the person may safely lower themselves to ground using the second rope braking device (2b), or may be lowered to ground by a colleague/operator (20) located at the anchor point (18) operating the first rope braking device.
