Rope access work situations often involve environments at significant height. Work can be performed outside or inside, or even in confined spaces, and is not all suited to collective protection. Work done in confined spaces carries additional difficulties related to lack of space and lack of means of autonomous progression.
Examples of operations: Placement of rockfall or stabilization nets over a road Structural inspection (such as bridge pilings) Exterior window cleaning on skyscrapers Inspection of tanks
Technical specifics: The work area is accessed with ropes by specialized workers trained in rope access techniques Access from above is preferred, as it is safer and simpler to set up
