Anchor or Davit Specification
The configuration your building and access method require, with load ratings.
Suspended access and rooftop anchorage
Roof Anchors and Davit Systems for Suspended Access
Tell us the building and how crews get over the edge. We will identify the right anchor or davit configuration, what it has to be rated for, and what certification you need to pass inspection.
- Tieback anchors, roof davits, peak anchors and permanent anchorage
- New installations, retrofits, and inspection of existing anchors
- Specified to OSHA, Cal OSHA, ASME ANSI and CAN CSA requirements
What we send back
A Configuration, Not a Catalog
Placement and Quantity
How many anchors, where they go, and how they tie into the structure below.
Certification Path
What testing and documentation you need so the system passes inspection.
If your existing anchors just need inspection rather than replacement, we will say so.
Solutions
Anchorage for Every Access Method
Tieback Anchors
Permanent anchorage for rope descent and window washing. The point a worker ties off to while suspended.
Roof Davits and Davit Arms
Fixed and powered davit systems that carry a suspended platform or bosun chair over the roof edge.
Peak and Pitched-Roof Anchors
Reusable and permanent anchors for sloped roofs where there is no flat surface to work from.
Confined Space Davits
Davit and winch combinations for vertical entry and retrieval at manholes, tanks and vaults.
Why people call us
Three Reasons This Usually Becomes Urgent
- A window cleaning or restoration contractor refused to work because the anchors could not be documented.
- An inspection or audit flagged the rooftop anchorage and there is a deadline attached.
- A new building is being designed and the anchorage has to be engineered in before the roof goes on.
All three are easier to solve before the deadline than after.
