Overhead workshop - The code access solution

The use of rope access inside buildings is a specialized method that enablesATELIER EN HAUTEURThese techniques enable us to carry out tasks in hard-to-reach locations, often at height, without the need for scaffolding or lifting platforms. These techniques are widely used in industrial, commercial and maintenance contexts.

Here are the main points to consider:

Benefits

  1. Fast, flexible access: Rope access technicians can reach areas inaccessible by conventional means, such as elevator shafts, hall ceilings, or areas above machinery.

  2. Time and cost savings: By avoiding the need for temporary structures such as scaffolding, work can often be completed more quickly and at lower cost.

  3. Reduced impact on the workspace: The rope access technique requires less floor space, limiting the impact on ongoing building activities.

  4. Safety: When good practice is followed, rope access techniques are extremely safe. The technicians atATELIER EN HAUTEUR are trained and equipped to minimize risks.

Current applications

  1. Cleaning and maintenance: Dust removal, window cleaning, maintenance of interior facades, elevator shafts or ventilation ducts.

  2. Repairs: Work on electrical installations, painting, repairs to interior structures.

  3. Inspections and technical auditsChecking structures, fire or ventilation systems, looking for cracks or other problems in the building structure.

Regulations and safety

Rope access work is governed by strict safety standards:

  1. Training: ATELIER EN HAUTEUR technicians are trained and accredited in rope access (SPRAT or IRATA) and rescue techniques.

  2. Hardware: The equipment used (ropes, harnesses, descenders, locking devices, karabiners) must comply with CNESST-recognized standards and be regularly inspected.

  3. Risk assessment and prevention plan: Before any intervention, a risk assessment must be carried out, and safety measures, such as the presence of a supervisor, must be put in place.

Indoor environment

  • Confined spaces: Some buildings may present additional risks, particularly in confined spaces, where special ventilation and rescue devices must be provided.
  • Anchoring systems: Indoors, it's essential to have reliable anchoring systems, often attached to steel structures, beams or other solid elements.

Rope access inside buildings requires careful planning and specialized skills to ensure safe and efficient operations.
