27、icular age group 3.2 protection point attachment point on the ACS designed to protect the climber NOTE It can be permanent (cannot be removed with tools, e.g. a glue in anchor) or non-permanent (removable with tools, e.g. a hanger). 3.3 individual protection point intermediate protection point used
28、to safeguard a climber in his/her progress on the ACS 3.4 individual top protection point protection point which is fixed at the top of a climbing line and which is designed to take the rope of one climber NOTE It can be used for top rope or lead climbing. 3.5 collective top protection system protec

33、aying user 4 Safety requirements and test methods 4.1 Layout and placement of individual protection points If there are individual protection points, the height of the first point shall not exceed 3,10 m. The maximum distance x for the placement of the individual protection point which follows the p
34、oint situated at the height of h (see Figure 1) shall be determined by using Equation (1) 5)0,2(x+=h(1) however, x shall not exceed: 1 m if h 5 m; 2 m if h 5 m where h is the distance between the point and the ground measured vertically, in metres, beneath the point in all cases. For slabs with an i
35、nclination of more than 5 the maximum distance x shall be always 1 m (see Figure 3). For protection points, the maximum distance shall be measured from the lowest internal point of the attach-ment point. If permanent quick draws are installed, the maximum distance shall be measured from lower quick
36、draw end to lower quick draw end. A permanent quick draw (e.g. chain secure element, Maillon Rapide) has to be dis-assembled from the climbing wall by means of tools (see Figure 2).

38、2-1:2007 (E) 8 Figure 3 Design and layout of protection points on slabs 4.2 Design of individual top protection points The rope shall not be able to escape from the top protection points at an untimely moment, e.g. single-snap-gate karabiner is not sufficient. Individual top protection points shall
39、be attached to the structure by two or more points of fixation. Each fixa-tion point shall be calculated as a protection point. Each link between the fixing points shall have a resistance greater than or equal to each of the points which it joins together; this resistance shall be verified by either
40、 calculation (see Annex A), or a document of compli-ance, or tests as defined in Annex C. 4.3 Dimensions The dimensions of all protection points and stance points with the exception of individual and collective top protection systems shall be in accordance with Figure 4. The bar or device over or th
41、rough which the rope passes in either a collective top protection system or an in-dividual top protection point shall be rounded in accordance with Figure 5.

43、ordance with Annexes A, B and Figure 6. Ensure that the structure (e.g. building, concrete platform, ground) can safely accommodate the loads im-posed by the ACS.

44、ints shall be calculated in accordance with Annexes A and B (e.g. glued protection points in concrete walls). Non permanent protection points shall have a breaking strength in the main load direction of a minimum of 20 KN. Figure 6 Placement of the loads on collective protection systems 4.4.2 Struct
45、ural integrity of a protection point connection All elements of an ACS shall be justified by calculation, however in exceptional cases for protection point con-nections only (the assembly that attaches the actual protection point to the sub frame), a load test as de-scribed in Annex C is acceptable
46、as a method of evaluation. After applying the design load to the protection point connection there shall be no permanent deformation. After applying the breaking load to the protection point connection there shall be no breakage. 4.5 Impact resistance of surface elements When tested in accordance wi
47、th Annex D, there shall be no breaking or splitting of any surface element. 4.6 Hold insert resistance When tested in accordance with Annex E, there shall be no breaking out or loosening of any surface material or hole insert. 4.7 Proof testing When tested in accordance with Annex F, after settling
48、under load there shall be no breaking, tearing or de-struction of the elements after testing. 4.8 Falling space Within the falling space there shall not be any obstacle which could lead to a hazard to the user. This does not apply to climbing structures or the floor, see Figure 7. The horizontal fal
49、ling space shall be 2 m behind, 1,5 m either side and 8 m below the protection points.
