User Instructions Void Former Positions for Fall Arrest
Before installing Scissorsafe expendable insert moulds into the formwork, carefully plan their positions, avoiding placement too close to concrete edges or joints or into concrete thicknesses less than 170mm.

To minimise the risk of injury Anchorages should be positioned as vertically as possible above the intended work area in an arc no more than thirty degrees from vertical so as to prevent in the event of a fall the user from swinging dangerously to and fro. ( commonly known as Pendulum or Swing Fall )
A Fall Arrest system provides maximum freedom of movement for workers to conduct their duties. In doing so it allows them to reach the point where a fall could occur, However, in the event of a fall, the fall will be arrested and so allow the person to be rescued.

Installing the Scissorsafe Anchorage System
In Fall Arrest configuration the Void Formers are cast at regular spacings around the perimeter and leading edges of the structure, anywhere where an operative may need to wear Personal Protective Equipment.
Void Former distances are determined by assessing the ceiling height and calculating the horizontal distance from it no greater than 30 degrees.
An operative that strays beyond 30 degrees from the overhead anchorage is vulnerable to the potential of Pendulum Swing in the event of a fall occurence.
