CLIENTS & PROJECTS

What Is Rope Access System?

The primary purpose of rope access is to enable workers to access difficult-to-reach locations without scaffolding, cradles, or aerial platforms.

A rope access technician will use ropes to descend, ascend, or traverse while held in place by a harness, and sometimes a rope access work seat as well.

Rope access first came into use for industrial work in the 1980s. Since then, trade associations like IRATA (Industrial Rope Access Trade Association) and SPRAT (Society of Professional Rope Access Technicians) have codified it, turning it into a tested and reliable method for getting people into hard-to-reach places for work.

To satisfy rope access safety requirements, rope technicians commonly use several redundancies to ensure they’ll still be safe in case part of their equipment fails.

Two common redundancies are:

1. A backup fall arrest system, utilizing two ropes for redundancy—comprising a working rope and a safety rope.
2. Additional anchor points, including a primary anchor point and two backup anchor points.

  • The main advantage of using rope access lies in the speed and safety with which they allow workers to reach hard-to-reach locations in order to perform their work, often with minimal impact on other operations and surrounding areas.
  • Comparing the man-at-risk hours and associated risks and costs of access to such locations with other means of access, rope access generally reduces both the time workers are exposed to risk and the degree of that

What is Rope Access Training

Industrial Abseiling Course Designed to Help Organizations and Operatives Meet the International Standards of Work Height Regulations via Rope Access System

We offer in-house Rope Access training courses at RETM MAINTENANCE ROPE ACCESS SERVICES, conducted in accordance with IRATA guidelines to ensure the highest quality training. This preparation equips trainees to handle various situations in the workplace effectively.

Local Rope Access courses cover levels 1, 2, and 3, ranging from basic training at level 1 to advanced competency at levels 2 and 3. These courses enable delegates to work safely at heights using diverse rope techniques, with levels 2 and 3 building on these foundational skills.

Our local Rope Access training on rigging, combined with an engineered anchor selection program, ensures flexibility while upholding the highest safety standards.

The training courses span a minimum of 30 hours over 4 days. Geared towards individuals unafraid of heights and aspiring to become Rope Access technicians, the course serves as preparation for assessment and qualification as IRATA-certified technicians capable of performing a specified range of rope access tasks.

Conducted by certified IRATA Rope Access Level 3 Trainee Instructor expert, Mr. Ed Atienza, with IRATA no.: 3/5140t. All IRATA-certified technicians receive a unique IRATA number during their initial assessment. This number, along with the technician’s surname, allows verification of their level and expiry date through the “Technician Check” feature on the IRATA website.

Rope Access Method vs Scaffolding

COST – EFFECTIVENESS
One of the most important things when it comes to any construction project is time. The more efficiently things are done on a site, the less time and money are wasted.

The construction of scaffolding, on all counts, is more costly. It requires specialized equipment that needs to be transported and constructed— which takes time. Deconstruction is also time-consuming, making it an unappealing option when you’re pressed to hit a deadline.

The time needed to set up rope access, on the other hand, is far shorter. Industrial rope access also needs significantly less equipment and is made up of far less costly materials. They are also less versatile, as scaffolds over a certain height often need special licenses in order to be constructed

ENHANCED SAFETY MEASURES
At first glance, rope access methods might seem more dangerous, but it has been seen that they are by far the safest option among all the means of high access.

This is because technicians are rigged to two separate ropes as a precautionary measure. One acts as the mainline, while the other acts as a fail-safe should the mainline fail. Tools are also tethered to technicians in case they are dropped, preventing injuries from falling tools.

Given their high standards of required training (more so than scaffolding or other types), rope access professionals exercise proper safety protocol and are injured far less often.

FLEXIBILITY
Depending on the architecture and design of a building, there are parts of it that will be difficult to access even with scaffolding. The wonderful thing about the rigging used to set up rope access is that it takes up very little space, and experienced technicians can reach these difficult spots with ease.

AESTHETICS / MINIMAL DISRUPTION
Rope access is also more friendly to the eyes, as the structure of a building is not covered up by unappealing scaffolding. It allows for repairs and maintenance to be performed without drawing too much attention to these operations. It also allows for minimal disruption of the building’s operations, and won’t block too many windows and doorways.

CONCLUSION
While scaffolding is highly unlikely to go away in construction, the option of industrial rope access should be considered for whatever repair, high- rise glazing, or maintenance projects your building may need to undertake. Not only is rope access cost-effective, but also space-saving, time-efficient, and safe.
