Situations which do not allow for an unobstructed fall path should be avoided.
Working in confined or cramped spaces may not allow sufficient speed to cause
the retractable lifeline locks in a fall. A similar situation may occur on low pitched
roofs,where a worker may slide instead of fall.
A clear path is required to ensure positive locking of retractable lifeline.
INSPECT

Calculating the minimum height required for the user:

OK The minimum working height H from the anchorage

point relative to the ground will be arrest distance plus
the clearance distance 2.85m under the user.
Take model HB-6N retractable lifeline for example,
The length f webbing cable is 6m, and clearance length is 2.85m,
MIN. H=2.85m
So H = 6M + 2.85M = 8.85M.
