Fall Factors

It is extremely important to determine the possible fall distance whilst using a shock absorbing lanyard to prevent any injuries through contact with anything at a lower level. Below is the calculation you should use to determine the lowest possible fall distance between the lanyards anchor point and the ground or lower levels.

• Twice the length of the lanyard (to allow for the length of the lanyard and the height of the worker)
• +1.75 Meters deceleration distance to allow for elongation of the shock absorber and any give in the lanyard.
• +1 Meter safety margin
• TOTAL = 6.75 metre clearance required using a 2 metre lanyard.
