Components of the Architectural Engineering Institute of ASCE
Facade Access Equipment provides structural engineering guidance
regarding the design, evaluation, and testing of permanent
anchorages and components that support facade access equipment and
fall-arrest systems. Currently this equipment is governed by
sections of the Code of Federal Regulations maintained by the U.S.
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Many OSHA
requirements are not written using terminology that is commonly
used by structural engineers, so this book conveys the generally
understood meaning of the regulations in terms familiar to
structural engineers. The introduction to this book reviews OSHA
requirements for permanent, building-supported facade access
equipment, discusses structural load testing, and surveys common
types of facade access equipment. Key terms are defined, and design
requirements are discussed for the following types of equipment:
davits and davit bases, outriggers, rooftop carriages, tieback
anchorages, lifelines and fall-arrest anchorages, fall-restraint
systems and anchorages, wind sway protection systems, and
platforms. Methods of evaluation and testing are presented,
including visual observations and calculations, materials testing,
and load testing. Separate commentary chapters elaborate on various
OSHA requirements. Structural engineers, architects, building
officials, and allied professionals will benefit from this clear
guidance regarding structural components for access and safety.
