Introduction Choosing an edge protection system is not just about buying barriers, posts, or guardrails. For contractors, rental companies, safety distributors, and procurement teams, the real question is: Which edge protection system fits the actual project condition? A concrete slab edge, steel beam, staircase, formwork platform, excavation area, and roof edge may all need fall … Leggi tutto
Introduction Installing an edge protection system is not only about placing posts, rails, or panels around an open edge. On real construction sites, installation quality directly affects safety, compliance, and project efficiency. In many cases, edge protection problems are not caused by product failure. They happen because the wrong fixing method is selected, important components … Leggi tutto
Introduction Edge protection is used on construction sites to help prevent workers, tools, and materials from falling from open edges. It is commonly installed around slabs, roofs, stairs, formwork areas, excavations, and other exposed work zones. Different site conditions require different edge protection systems. For example, a concrete slab, steel beam, stairway, formwork platform, trench … Leggi tutto
Introduction Working at height always brings risk. On construction sites, rooftops, platforms, and unfinished structures, even one unprotected edge can lead to a serious accident. That is why fall prevention is a basic part of site safety planning. Two of the most common ways to control this risk are PPE and edge protection systems. They … Leggi tutto
Introduction Fall protection is an important part of construction safety because workers often operate near open edges, roof perimeters, slab edges, stair openings, and lift shafts. In these areas, the risk of falls, dropped tools, and serious accidents is high, so contractors need reliable systems to protect workers and keep the site safe. Two terms … Leggi tutto
Introduction When it comes to protecting workers from fall hazards on concrete frame construction projects, selecting the right edge protection system is crucial. Among the various solutions, two of the most common methods are slab grabs and bolt-on brackets. While both serve the same fundamental purpose—preventing falls from height—their designs, applications, and installation methods differ … Leggi tutto
Introduction The safety of construction workers at height has always been a top priority, but recent updates to European standards reflect an even stronger commitment to fall prevention. BS EN 13374:2025 is the latest revision of the harmonized European standard for temporary edge protection systems (TEPS), superseding the previous 2013+A1:2018 version. This revision not only … Leggi tutto
Introduction: Small mistakes, big risks Every site has one shared danger: the edge. Temporary edge protection prevents falls—but only if it’s planned early, installed the right way, and checked often. Even experienced crews can miss small details that turn into big problems. Here are five mistakes we still see on projects, plus simple steps to … Leggi tutto
Introduction Working at height is one of the most dangerous aspects of the construction and industrial sectors. Whether on scaffolding, rooftops, or steel frameworks, workers face significant fall risks every day. According to the International Labour Organization, falls from height are among the leading causes of occupational fatalities worldwide. To minimize these risks, it’s critical … Leggi tutto
Introduction: The Critical Role of Edge Protection Falls remain the single greatest cause of fatalities in the construction industry, a sobering fact that underscores the absolute necessity of robust fall protection systems. On any construction site, unprotected edges—whether on roofs, floors, or scaffolding—represent a severe and constant hazard. To combat this danger and ensure safe … Leggi tutto
