Anchor and structure strength
Select an anchor point of sufficient strength for the
planned works. Consideration should be given to peak
forces generated during work positioning, potential fall
scenarios and rescue contingencies. Consider the capabi-
lities of the whole structure being climbed including its to-
lerance to the horizontal component of forces. In all cases
the structure and anchor point shall meet the strength
requirements of EN795(B). Climbers and site supervisors
shall be competent in assessing climbing structures prior
to, and during, climbing operations.
Anchor location
Anchor points shall be located to minimise the chance of unwanted movement and pendulum
swings. Whenever possible place the anchor point directly above the site of work.
Protect the tree and PPE
Consider the use of tools at the anchor point that minimise damage to the tree and PPE e.g.
TEUFELBERGER multiSAVER.
Rope Installation
Users shall follow the approved installation sequence for
each type of anchor device employed. For TEUFELBERGER
multiSAVER, pass the rope sling over the selected anchor
branch or stem so that its ends lie to each side of, and be-
low, the anchor. Pass the eye of the climbing line through
the small ring before the large ring.
For natural anchors, pass the eye around the anchor point.
Consider protecting the rope by a covering sleeve. Be
aware that direct contact of the climbing rope on the tree
leads to abrasion.
