“Fall Arrest” is the term used to describe a method of accessing remote and exposed points on a structure (tower, building, oil rig, etc.) using advanced height safety gear, in order to carry out some form of work (painting, cleaning, inspection, installation, repair, etc.), which does not involve abseiling on ropes. Common techniques include clipping up a latticework using double shock-absorbing lanyards and the use of permanent fall arrest systems such as Fallprotec Securope vertical and horizontal lifelines.
