The materials shall

42、be free from faults and inclusions which may impair their performance abilities. The corrosion resistance shall be at least equivalent to that of hot-dip galvanised steel with a protective layer of 50 m. Parts of the fastening systems beneath the roof covering may be from timber and shall then be pr

43、otected against atmospheric and climatic influences. Parts of the fastening system may consist of products for roof coverage. 5 Dimensions and design requirements 5.1 General In the working position all ladders shall be designed for a maximum static load of 150 kg (mass of one person with equipment)

44、. Roof ladders shall be categorised as follows: C1: Roof ladders that shall not be used as anchor points for personal protective equipment against falls from a height nor be used for attaching collective protection devices. C2: Roof ladders that may be used as anchor points for personal protective e

45、quipment against falls from a height There are two different types of roof ladders: TA: Roof ladders with steps. NOTE 1 Roof ladders with steps should primarily be used on roof surfaces with an inclination of 10 and 45. TB: Roof ladders with rungs. NOTE 2 Roof ladders with rungs should primarily be

46、used on roof surfaces with an inclination of 45 Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, na, Thu Mar 09 03:21:00 GMT 2006, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSIEN 12951:2004 (E) 7 5.2 Dimensions Steps shall have a minimum depth (d) of 80 mm (see Figure 3: Roof ladder dimensions). Rungs shall have a depth (d) of 20 mm and 80 m

47、m (see Figure 2a). If rungs consist of a round tube the diameter (D) shall be 25 mm and 40 mm (see Figure 2b: Roof ladder type B). The length (L) of steps or rungs shall be at least 300 mm for category 1 and 350 mm for category 2 (see Figure 3). The roof ladder shall be designed in such a way that w

48、hen the roof ladder has been fixed to the roof construction there is a minimum distance between the upper edge of the step or rung and the surface of the roof covering of H 100 mm measured rectangular to the roof pitch. The sum of (d) + 2 (y) shall not exceed 690 mm (see Figure 3). 5.3 Design 5.3.1

49、General design requirements Permanently fixed roof ladders shall have supports at least at the top and at the bottom fixing them to the load-bearing roof construction. The surface of steps and rungs shall be designed in such a manner that slipping of persons and collection of water and snow is prevented. In order to protect people against slipping from ladders, steps and rungs shall be equipped with upstands or side battens along the side which, measured at the centre of the steps surface (d/2), shall have a minimum height of 20 mm (a) (s
