BS EN 1263-2:2014EN 1263-2:2014 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard specifies
19、 safety requirements for the positioning of safety nets in accordance with the manufacturers instruction manual and with the product specifications and for the testing of system S, system T, system U and system V safety nets in accordance with EN 1263-1. Small safety nets of system S according to EN
20、 1263-1 (less than 35 m2and 5,0 m on the shortest side) are not dealt with in this European Standard. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

22、iven in EN 1263-1:2014 apply. 4 Safety requirements 4.1 Instruction manual For the use and application of safety nets an instruction manual (guidance) in accordance with EN 1263-1:2014, Clause 9 shall be included with each consignment of safety net. This instruction manual shall be available in the
23、language of the user. It shall contain at least the following information: required anchorage forces; maximum fall height; minimum catching width; safety net linkage; minimum distance below the safety net; storage; examination; replacement. In addition to these instructions, special installation ins
24、tructions shall be followed according to the specific application of the net. 4.2 Fall height The fall heights Hi, Heand Hrare defined in Table 1. BS EN 1263-2:2014EN 1263-2:2014 (E) 5 Table 1 Definitions of fall heights Figure Definition Comment Hi1 The vertical distance between the working level b
25、eing safeguarded and the safety net The maximum permissible fall height into a safety net is 6 m from the working level, which means that the maximum nominal fall height from the centre of gravity of a person is 7 m. He1, 2 and 5 The vertical distance between the edge of a working level being safegu
26、arded and the safety net This dimension is to be used to calculate the horizontal projection of the safety net beyond the working level above it. See Table 2. Hr1 The vertical distance between the working level being safeguarded and the 2 m wide border edge of the safety net. Safety nets are less ab
27、le to carry an impact load near the edges of the net. Therefore, the vertical distance at this point shall not exceed 3,0 m. Safety nets should be erected as close as possible below the working level. Each of the fall heights Hiand Heshall not exceed 6,0 m (see Figure 1, Figure 2 and Figure 5). In a
28、ddition to this, the reduced fall height Hrwithin 2 m of the border shall not exceed 3,0 m (see Figure 1). 4.3 Catching width The catching width b is the horizontal distance between the edge of the working area and the edge of the safety net (see Figure 1 and Figure 2). Dependent on the fall height,
29、 the catching width b of the safety net shall not be less than the values given in Table 2. Table 2 Fall heights and required catching widths Fall height He 1,0 m 3,0 m 6,0 m Catching width b 2,0 m 2,5 m 3,0 m BS EN 1263-2:2014EN 1263-2:2014 (E) 6 Dimensions in centimetres Key 1 safety net Figure 1
30、Fall heights and required catching widths of working areas inclined between 0 and 20 If the working area is inclined by more than 20: the catching width b shall be at least 3,0 m; the distance t between the outermost working point and the lowest point of the edge of the safety net shall not exceed 3
31、,0 m (see Figure 2).

32、afety nets For the positioning of system S safety nets the smallest size shall be at least 35 m2. For rectangular safety nets the length of the shortest side shall be at least 5,0 m. Small safety nets (less than 35 m2and 5,0 m on the shortest side) are not part of this standard and should be determi
33、ned by national regulations where applicable. 5.2 Positioning fixings System S safety nets shall be positioned with tie ropes or other devices on anchorage points capable of bearing the characteristic load. For attachment devices other than tie ropes a safety factor of 2 shall be used. The distance
34、between the anchorage points shall be less than 2,5 m. To calculate each anchorage point, the characteristic load P used shall be at least 6 kN with the fall height being 6,0 m. The assumed angle of this load shall be = 45 (see Figure 3). For the calculation of the supporting framework only three ch
35、aracteristic loads of 4 kN, 6 kN and 4 kN shall be considered applied in the most unfavourable way (see Figure 3). BS EN 1263-2:2014EN 1263-2:2014 (E) 8 Figure 3 Examples of characteristic loads at the anchorage points 5.3 Safety net linkage For the linkage of single safety nets, coupling ropes in a
36、ccordance with EN 1263-1 shall be used. The linkage shall be made in such a way that gaps greater than 100 mm do not develop between the edges of the nets. When system S safety nets are linked by overlapping, the minimum overlap shall be at least 2,0 m. 5.4 Deformation of the safety net The maximum
37、deformation of the safety net when rigged according to the test conditions given in EN 1263-1:2014, Clause 7, is shown in Figure 4. NOTE Safety distances below the deformed safety net are not covered by this European Standard. BS EN 1263-2:2014EN 1263-2:2014 (E) 9 Key l span of the safety net (small

40、the linkage of single safety nets, coupling ropes in accordance with EN 1263-1 shall be used. The linkage shall be made in such a way that gaps greater than 100 mm do not develop between the edges of the nets. When system T safety nets are linked by overlapping, the minimum overlap shall be 0,75 m.

The linkage shall be made in such a way that gaps greater than 100 mm do not develop between the edges of the nets. For system V safety nets, overlapping shall not be used. 8.3 Posit
44、ioning The safety net shall be attached to “gallow” type system supports at its upper edge and to the building or supporting framework at its lower edge. For the positioning of the net, the following points shall be taken into account: the distance between any two top supports shall not exceed 5,0 m
45、; the supports shall be secured against turning; the distance between the bottom edge anchorage devices for the attachment of the net to the building shall not exceed 0,50 m (see Figure 6); the distance between the anchorage points and the edge of the building shall be at least 0,1 m (see Figure 6);
