Integrating a fall protection consultant at the beginning of a new construction or renovation project is essential. When anchorages can be located to minimize impact to building structure, there is cost savings to the owner, and if bracing does need to be installed it is best to coordinate these locations prior to erecting the building structure. In Northern states, roof insulation can be substantial and anchorage products or guardrail posts should project through roofing materials to allow for proper flashing. This was the case in Charleston, West Virginia where Peak Fall Protection was engaged to coordinate suspended maintenance anchorage design and system installation. The system was fully coordinated with high profile roof anchors and seamlessly installed without impact to the building schedule.
