Safe Working Heights for Beam Work Applications, etc From Walking / Working Surface to Surface Below with
lifeline mounted overhead.
The Safe Working Height chart for beam work is valid only with Ultra-Safe retractables and Ultra-Safe safety harnesses. Any
products used that are not made by Ultra-Safe may dramatically affect the performance of the Horizontal Lifeline system and
may therefore invalidate the Safe Working Height Chart. When the actual column spans fall in between those spans shown
in Table, round UP to the next span indicated and use that safe working height calculations.
When an Ultra-Safe 18" long D-Ring extender is used an additional 18" per worker MUST BE ADDED to the minimum safe
working heights shown in Table.
*The use of a shock-absorbing lanyard will greatly affect the safe working height chart and must not be used without
consulting Ultra-Safe Fall Protection.
The total number of users permitted on single or multiple span systems for beam applications are outlined in table
