Introduction Estimating edge protection quantities from construction drawings is not simply a matter of measuring the building perimeter. Different floors, openings, corners, fixing conditions, and construction stages can all change the final quantity. A useful takeoff needs to connect what is shown on the drawing with how the edge protection system will actually be installed … Lasīt tālāk
Introduction Concrete structures create fall hazards at several stages of construction, from exposed slab edges and floor openings to stairs, formwork and unfinished balconies. Temporary edge protection helps control these risks, but the same fixing method does not suit every location. This guide explains the main edge protection options for concrete structures and what contractors … Lasīt tālāk
Introduction Concrete edge protection can be fixed in different ways, slab grab and bolt-down systems are two common options.

EN 13374 vs. AS/NZS 4994.1: Key Differences for Buyers Temporary edge protection systems may look similar across different construction markets. A steel post, mesh barrier, guardrail, slab attachment, or parapet clamp can often be used in comparable site conditions. However, similar product appearance does not mean the same system automatically satisfies the requirements of every … Lasīt tālāk
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 … Lasīt tālāk
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 … Lasīt tālāk
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 … Lasīt tālāk
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 … Lasīt tālāk
