title: Roof and Facade Fall Protection Anchorage
…2 unchanged lines
description: >
When to use: Permanent and semi-permanent fall protection anchorage installed on low-slope and sloped roofs, parapets, and building facades to protect workers during maintenance, window washing, roofing, and facade access. Covers welded or bolted structural anchor plates, parapet clamps, non-penetrating standing-seam clamps and counterweight systems, concrete and masonry embedded anchors, davit base sockets, horizontal lifeline (HLL) cable and rail anchorage, and engineered certification of anchors for personal fall arrest and travel restraint systems on new construction and retrofit.
− Not intended for: Temporary construction-phase guardrails and perimeter cables (see [[sync/temporary-facilities-and-controls]]); the structural steel substrate the anchors attach to (see [[sync/miscellaneous-metals]] and [[sync/metal-fabrications]]); roof access stair rails and ladder cages (see [[sync/metal-stairs-and-railings]]); roof membrane, flashing, and penetration waterproofing detailing (coordinate with [[sync/membrane-roofing]]); portable jobsite-temporary anchors removed after construction; and the personal protective equipment that clips to the anchor (harnesses, lanyards, SRLs, connectors).
+ Not intended for: Temporary construction-phase guardrails and perimeter cables (see [[sync/temporary-facilities-and-controls]]); the structural steel substrate the anchors attach to (see [[sync/miscellaneous-metals]] and [[sync/metal-fabrications]]); roof access stair rails (see [[sync/metal-stairs-and-railings]]); fixed ladders and ladder cages (see [[sync/miscellaneous-metals]]); roof membrane, flashing, and penetration waterproofing detailing (coordinate with [[sync/membrane-roofing]]); portable jobsite-temporary anchors removed after construction; and the personal protective equipment that clips to the anchor (harnesses, lanyards, SRLs, connectors).

- Temporary guardrails, safety cables, and perimeter protection used only during active construction are governed by OSHA 29 CFR 1926 Subpart M and are covered under [[sync/temporary-facilities-and-controls]].
- The structural steel framing and miscellaneous metal that form the substrate to which anchors attach are covered by [[sync/miscellaneous-metals]] and [[sync/metal-fabrications]].
−- Stair rail systems and ladder safety cages on roof access routes are covered by [[sync/metal-stairs-and-railings]].
+- Stair rail systems on roof access routes are covered by [[sync/metal-stairs-and-railings]]; fixed ladders and their ladder safety cages are covered by [[sync/miscellaneous-metals]].
- Roof membrane, flashing, and deck penetration waterproofing at penetrating anchors are detailed under [[sync/membrane-roofing]]; this standard requires coordination with that work but does not specify the waterproofing itself.
- Portable, jobsite-temporary, sandbag-weighted, or otherwise non-permanent anchor devices that are removed at the end of construction are construction-phase procurement items, not permanent building components.
