Combisafe Systemsset the StandardsFor 25 years Combisafe has been at the leading edge

of Height Safety in Construction throughout Europe.

The Combisafe Systems have become the industry

benchmark with their innovative modular approach,

integrating solutions, like the Steel Mesh Barrier and

Multi Clamp for Fall Prevention, with Safety Net Fans

and Alsipercha for Fall Protection. The systems stand

alone, or are combined into a total safety envelope.

The Combisafe Difference

The Combisafe systems concept has been developed over

the years and now incorporates a vast range of productsolutions, technical support, research and development

projects, component testing, training, installation and

consultancy service. Combisafe can support the needs of a

project at any stage, however, their early involvement will

permit the greatest flexibility of solution, and will always

produce improved results practically, commercially, and in

terms of safety.

Industry not Product Driven

Even Combisafes product grouping structure is married to

the general Height Safety hierarchy, with Fall Preventionsystems offered before Fall Protection systems, and

Collective solutions offered before Personal ones.

Alongside these product divisions, lie the Access products

and the extensive array of Technical Consultancy Services.

Combisafe Prevention

Within the collective Fall Prevention range, systems

include the Steel Mesh Barrier S-System that can integratewith the traditional timber solutions, and its partner

the Steel Mesh Barrier C-System for integration with

scaffolding. Both are fully compliant within the relevant

performance classes within the European Standard (EN

13374). Completing this group is the Net Barrier System,

designed to satisfy the edge protection needs of steep roofs

or large span structures, and meeting the performance

requirements of both Class C within EN 13374, and

System U within EN 1263.

Combisafe ProtectionThe Fall Protection range includes the Safety Net Fan,

with specifications for both material and man catching.

This system not only protects the site workers from falls

and falling materials, but as it absorbs the fall energy and

contains the falling materials, it also protects passers-by.

The man catching specification meets the performance

requirements of System T within EN 1263. Within this

group is Alsipercha, the flexible sky hook for concrete

frame construction, the truck or trailer Loading System, and

a full range of Miller Personal Fall Protective Equipment

from Sperian.

Combisafe Access

Within the Access grouping, Combisafe has developed

Site Stairways for easy, flexible, and safe access betweenlevels, and Working Platform systems to provide light-

weight, modular, high level access without the need to

restrict the area below. Combisafe has also extended its

range of Access solutions to include weather-protection,

safety guardrail, and scaffolding systems.

Combisafe Services

The Service offering includes full Technical Support with

drawing and design integration capacity, and bespoke

design for unique problems requiring individual solutions.

There is extensive training provided at various levels, bothon specific product ranges and on all aspects of Work@

Height Safety. The training is best accessed through one of

the Safety Centres, which combines product display and

system demonstration on an enclosed and weatherproof

three-storey frame, together with high quality meeting

rooms and catering.

Alongside these services, Combisafe offers access to

systems installation, and project consultancy for all aspects

of Work@Height.

Pioneers

Combisafes passion and commitment to performance

standards for all its system solutions is legendary.Combisafe hosted the first meeting of the technical

committee for the European Standard for Temporary

Edge Protection Systems (EN 13374) back in 1994 in

stersund. Since then, Combisafe has given freely of the

years of experience represented within its technical teams,

strengthening the drafting committees and maintaining the

link between the resulting standards, the leading edge of

product development, and the major end user customers

within the industry.

Products: Steel Mesh Barrier C-System,Safety Net Fan, Combisafe LoadingSystem, Steel Mesh Barrier Beam

Overview: One New Change is takingshape as a world-class contemporarybuilding designed to complement itshistorical neighbour, St Pauls Cathedral.

Located on Cheapside, this mixed-use development offers 31,587m ofprestigious office space and 20,438mof shops, cafs and restaurants transforming the area into a seven-dayshopping and leisure experience.

One New Change is due to be completedin 2010.

Comment:

During this project a proprietary edgeprotection system was required, thatwas equally at home on concrete andsteel. We also needed the facility towork through the edge protection wheninstalling the cladding panels. Combisafewere able to meet all these criteria withtheir Steel Mesh Barrier System and alsoprovide us with solutions to safely off-loadvehicles, and the Safety Net Fan systemto protect site workers and the publicfrom the risk of falling debris. With thetight deadline, another key factor in our

decision was the off-the-shelf availabilityof attachments, capable of fixing to steelbeams with very large overhangs.

Overview: TownTown is one of the largestconstruction projects in Austria including21 office buildings, one undergroundstation, an underground car park withapprox. 650 parking spaces, as well as aplaza with various shops and restaurants.Close to Vienna International Airport,TownTown presents not only a newdistrict but a modern and outstandingbusiness park.

With 22 floors and a unique acute-angledfaade, the new Company Building 03,The Tower, will claim a landmarkposition on the skyline of Vienna. TheCombisafe Safety Net Fans were used forthe edge protection of the office tower,covering 36,000m.

This 280 Million project will becompleted in the end of 2012.

Comment:

This project was very challenging for us.While working on the concrete frame inthe upper floors of the building, workson the actual faade were also beingcarried out on the lower floors. Therefore,we needed an edge protection system,which provided a fall-arrest system for ourworkforce as well as protection againstfalling debris. The Combisafe Safety NetFans proved to be the best solution. Easily

assembled at ground level, we were ableto lift them into position by crane and fixthem along the edge of the 13th floor.

The new skyscraper covers a total area of69,000m, including 44,000m of officespace and 13 parking floors with around600 parking spaces. A special feature isthe 7m high glass boardroom, situatedon the 44th floor of the building, whichoffers a panoramic view of Rotterdam andthe river Maas.

During this project, the Combisafe SafetyNet Fan and Steel Mesh Barrier System

were used to protect the workers alongthe edge of the building.

Comment:

The Safety Net Fans proved to be thebest solution for this project as theyallowed us to protect our workers onsite and pedestrians from falling objects,which is a very big problem for any high-rise construction. Both the Steel MeshBarriers and the Safety Net Fans wereinstalled on the ground and then lifted

into position by crane. Thus, no work atheight to install the edge protection wasnecessary.

Scaffolding contractor: JUFByggnadsstllningar AB

Products: UBIX Temporary Roof with

Tension Bar SystemOverview: The court house in Falun,Sweden, is to be renovated adding anextra storey, and a temporary roof isrequired to protect the existing premiseswhile work continues throughout thewinter. Scaffolding contractor JUFByggnadsstllningar AB selected a UBIXTemporary Roof for this project.

UBIX is remarkably light, around 8kg/m,which is of great benefit when erectingby crane. The fully-braced roof bays are

very rigid and prove very simple to rigand manoeuvre into place on the scaffoldsupport.

The roof is calculated for a basic windspeed of 25m/s and a snow load of70kg/m. Mounted on a standardfreestanding scaffold structure severalmetres above the existing building,potential heavy snow loads could causehigh transverse forces. To counteract theseforces, the UBIX Tension Bar System hasbeen specified. The Tension Bars link

each side of the roof with prefabricated,high-tensile tubes. The whole systemproved extremely easy to assemble on theground prior to lifting the roof bays.

Comment:

I have had great results with UBIXsince investing in the system last year,and the service from Combisafe hasbeen excellent. They have helped mewith design and erection advice, so thatthe jobs have gone really smoothly. We

will certainly be looking to use UBIX infuture whenever we need reliable weatherprotection.

Products: PREGUARDOverview: The Arts Tower was designedduring a competition in 1959, and openedin June 1966 by the Queen Mother.

It was originally built to accommodate160 staff and 1,000 students, but, inrecent years, has become overcrowded.As part of a major refurbishment package,the landmark Grade II listed buildingis about to embark on a renovationprogramme to improve flow of movementand amenities for all users.

Comment:

The access scaffold for the Arts Towerwas a major project for HT ScaffoldingSystems Ltd, involving complexengineered foundations for the structurethat will be 39 lifts in total standing amassive 80 metres high on completion.Having been one of the first scaffoldingcontractors to invest in the PREGUARDadvance guardrail system, we areconvinced that it offers the best fallprotection for our scaffolders. BAMConstruction was keen to see advanceguardrails used on the project and wedecided to purchase a complete ringof PREGUARD around the wholeperimeter, totalling 118m. Weve beenimpressed by the speed with which acomplete ring can be raised, in fact ittakes less than a minute per bay anddoesnt slow down the erection work atall. Based on our experience on this site,we have decided to roll out PREGUARD

on all our contracts. This will give us agreat advantage when tendering for newwork with all blue-chip clients.

This project is a pilot project forDUMEZ Ile-de-France SAS to test theproducts from Combisafe as well as the

cooperation between both companies.The steel frame structure of the buildingrequired a special edge protection system,which is very flexible and can be adaptedto different situations.

Comment:

The Combisafe products allowed usto install the edge protection system atground level using the Steel Jaw Clamps,and lift the steel beams into position withthe edge protection in place. Thus, we

were able to save both time and costs. Iam confident to integrate the solution intoour protection range of products.

The slender glass and stainless steelstructure of 46 storeys will provide40,836m of office space, divided across36 floors with a public restaurant and baron the top three levels.

Comment:

Due to the large steel beams on thisproject, Combisafes standard attachmentswere not suitable, but they were ableto adapt the connection details of theSafety Net Fan to suit the size of the steel.A public footpath and local businessesneeded to stay open while constructionwas in progress, and Combisafe was ableto adapt the standard Safety Net Fans tobe erected to the hoardings. The SafetyNet Fans provided protection for passers-by from debris whilst letting in natural

light to the footpath. This enabled accessfor the public to remain open and localbusinesses to carry on trading.

productNew Innovative Combisafe

Multi Mesh BarrierPatent Pending | Art. No. 3300

The new Combisafe Multi Mesh Barrier (MMB) combines a Post and

Barrier in a single component, for simplicity, ease, and speed of

installation.

It has been designed to cost-effectively satisfy the performance

and containment requirements of EN 13374 Class A alone. The

installation uses a single fixing and overlap, and is therefore not

sensitive to accurate attachment spacing. The overlap is securedusing a Combistrap. This permits a wide range of varied applications

including curves and corners.

The system can use pre-cast sockets, clamps, or drilled fixings

as attachments. Once the fixing is made, the MMB can be safely

installed without having to access the edge, improving speed and

safety. Individual barriers can be opened, like gates by simply

removing the Combistrap, to permit access to the edge or for

loading through. They are then safely shut from behind the

protection of the Barrier. The large mesh size provides the required

level of containment, whilst also allowing operatives to reach

through and work without removing the Barrier.



35/164


Combisafe New Products

Regulations and StandardsWhen used with either the Cast-In

Sleeve and Spigot, the Multi Clamp,or the Multi Foot, the MMB has been

tested to show compliance with all the

requirements of EN 13374 Class A. It

is therefore suitable for a vast range of

applications protecting the edges of

horizontal surfaces or those sloping up

to 10. Full performance information

is available through the technical

information sheets, user instructions,

and training courses.

Features and Benefitsn Reduces the number of components

on site.

n Weighs just 15kg, and so is readily

installed by a single operative.

n Can be safely installed without

approaching the building edge.

n Robust steel frame ensures durability

and ease of storage and stacking.

n Flexible overlap solution allows

varied centres, each unit protects up

to 2m of edge.

n Large mesh allows work through and

reduces wind load. Containment can

be increased by adding small mesh

overlays.

n Can be joined vertically to increase

height of the protection.

n Tight curves accommodated by

reducing the overlap.

n Can be opened individually topermit access to the edge, or

loading.

Step 1: Hold barrier with post

at far end, one barrier length

from the edge. Lever the post

up using the foot against the

near end and place the post in

the fixing.

Step 2: Swing the barrier away

from you, towards the edge of

the building to join the run of

barriers.

Step 3: Use Combistrap to tie

the barriers together.

Safe Installation

Combistrap|Art. No. 100335The Combistrap is a simple

webbing strap with a locking

buckle used to connect

adjacent MMBs. It acts like

a very strong, easily re-used

cable tie, 400mm long. The

Combistrap is specificallydesigned for this application, but it frequently performs a vast

range of other duties on a building site.

MMB Box |Art. No. 9550The MMB Box is designed to make transport and storage of the

MMB system efficient and easy. It holds 41 MMBs whilst being

stacked up to 4 boxes high, and when stacked the top MMB Box

can take 43 barriers. The MMB Box is readily moved around the

site by forklift or crane, and yet once empty it collapses to ease

return transport and space. It has been carefully sized to make

effective use of shipping container volumes.

New Steel Mesh Barrier StairRegistered Design | Art. No. 3226

Temporarily protecting the edges of stairways during

construction has previously been complicated and expensive. The

varied nature of the stairs, landings, and returns, often required

many cut tubes, sharp ends, and much purpose built protection.

The new Steel Mesh Barrier Stair (SMB Stair) has be designed

to solve these problems, offering a systemised solution that can

stand alone or integrate with either SMB system.

The SMB Stair provides continuous edge protection along

staircases, and at returns the Gap Closer ensures continuity and

protects any sharp edges. The landings are protected using the

SMB system, linking seamlessly to the SMB Stair. The SMB Stair

is supported on the adjustable posts, and can be fitted to any

angle of permanent or temporary stairway. It can also be raised

to allow access to work on the outside edge of the stair unit. The

SMB Stair is a single component, and can be fitted to either side

of the staircase.



37/164



Regulations and StandardsThe new SMB Stair, when combined

with the Safety Post and fitted with

either the Stair Attachment, Multi

Foot, or the Multi Clamp and Stair

Angle, provides an edge protection

solution that has been tested to confirm

compliance with the requirements of

EN 13374 Temporary Edge Protection

Systems, Class A. Full performance

information is available through the

technical information sheets, user

instructions, and training courses.

Features and Benefitsn Provides continuous edge protection

to a run of stairs.

n Complies with EN 13374 Class A

nToeboard is integrated for ease andspeed of installation.

n Can be lifted in place, using the

SMB Holder, to allow works to the

edge of the stair.

n Gap Closer ensures no sharp edges

at the return, and provides a toe-

board to the landing.

Stair Attachment|Registered Design|Art. Nos. 1202/4202Using the Stair Attachment,

the SMB Stair can be placed

outside the staircase, so as not

to restrict the useable width of

the stair. This allows finishing

works to go ahead withoutremoving the edge protection.

Multi Foot|Registered Design|Art. Nos. 1290/4290Using the Multi Foot, the SMB

Stair can be placed on the

surface of the step, right at the

edge. This minimises the loss

of width and, with detailed

planning, can incorporate thepermanent handrail fixings.

Stair Angle|Art. No. 1510

Multi Clamp|Registered Design|Art. No. 1550Using these two attachments

restricts the width of the stair,

however installation is very

quick and no extra drilling of

fixings is needed.

Gap Closer|Art. No. 3227A simple and effective addition

to the SMB Stair system, the

Gap Closer is used to fill gaps,

voids, returns, and to protect

against sharp ends and edges.

It is a simple semi-stiff board

that will fill gaps between

100mm and 500mm. It is

held in place by 4 integral

Combistraps, and forms a

smooth curve between the

Containment SolutionsNew solutions, and developments of existing systems,to increase the edge protection and level of containment.

As building height grows and construction programmes

shorten, the risk of equipment, people, and materials

falling or being blown out of a partially complete building

increases. This has led to a rising demand for floor to soffit

containment as part of the edge protection solution.

There is no European Standard or other consistent point of

reference to define what is an acceptable level of containmentor what should be contained. Full Height Containment is often

referred to, implying floor to soffit, but not clarifying the

containment level or mesh size.

Combisafe have, therefore, begun our Containment offering

by developing a new Combisafe Standard, to define what is

meant by Containment, and to clarify the conflicting demands

and variables included within our Containment Solutions.

The Combisafe

Containment StandardThe Combisafe Containment Standard

is available through the Combisafe

Technical Support. It does not replace or

conflict with any part of the EuropeanStandard EN 13374 for Temporary Edge

Protection, but is a complement to it.

The Standard covers applications and

performance criteria for Containment

Systems used in construction. It covers

those fixed to the building structure and

those relying on friction. It specifies

the various containment zones, the

containment area, and the containment

density. It does not apply to side

protection on scaffolds.

The Solutions | Patent Pending

The SMB Containment solution uses existing SMB components

to cover the containment area. Post extensions, adapters,

and specially sized SMB Holders are combined with existing

products to provide a certain containment density. Solutions are

bespoke, and include technical justification, wind loads, andinstallation instructions.

The MMB Containment solution uses the new Multi Mesh

Barrier System components to cover the containment area.

Additional spigots and screw jacks may be required, and the

containment area is covered in vertical units of 1150mm. In

view of the large mesh size of the MMB, the solution starts at the

250mm containment density. If applications require an increased

density, over lay materials can be used.

The Safety Net solution uses a safety net with a chosen mesh

size to provide the required containment density. This is normally

fitted to the soffit by remote attachment, and either joins with

the existing edge protection solution, or extends to the working

surface.

Combined solutions are also available, mixing the features

and benefits from other solutions to satisfy particular needs or

applications.

Please contact our Technical Support for further information.

New Rear SupportAdjustableSignificantly increases the flexibilityof the Eaves Attachment AdjustableArt. No. 1741

The new Rear Support Adjustable allows the Eaves

Attachment Adjustable (Art. No. 1702) to be mounted

under the truss overhang, without requiring the normal

reaction from the building faade. The Rear Support

Adjustable fits into the Eaves Attachment Adjustable and

transfers the reaction load back into the truss overhang,

thus permitting use on a much larger range of overhangs,

and freeing the faade for finishing works.

The Rear Support Adjustable is indexed to position

the bearing point on the truss overhang, and also to

accommodate different roof slopes. The index pin is

captive on a wire lanyard, so it cannot be dropped in

use. The load distribution plate is also hinged to ensure

an even bearing on the truss, and has a nailing plate to

prevent movement under wind load.

Regulations and StandardsWhen used with the Eaves Attachment

Adjustable, the Safety Post, and the

SMB, the Rear Support Adjustable has

been tested to show compliance with allthe requirements of EN 13374 Classes

A, B, and C. It is, therefore, suitable for

a vast range of applications protecting

the edges of working surfaces sloping

up to 45, and up to 60 if less than

5m long. Full performance information




Features and Benefitsn Indexed adjustment in two directions

for truss bearing position and slope

angle, for maximum flexibility.

n Permits mounting the SMB at an

angle relative to the roof slope.

n Bearing plate to reduce damage and

load on the visible bottom of the

truss overhang.

n Nailing plate to prevent movement

through wind load directed onto the

building.n Captive index pin to prevent loss

New SCAFFSTEPAluminium Version: Art. No. 24350010 l Steel Version: Art. No. 24990001

The SCAFFSTEP is a lightweight hop-up, enabling a Scaffolder to

erect or dismantle guardrails on the lift above, whilst protected by that

lifts ledger. The SCAFFSTEP is clipped onto the working level top

guardrail at any position, and its adjustable feet bear on the boards.

The integral ladder provides access to the platform, and the retractable

lanyard provides protection whilst accessing it. Once standing on the

top platform, the Scaffolder is protected from falling out of the scaffold

by the ledger of the lift above, now acting as his single guardrail. He

can then reach up in perfect safety and either attach, or release the

guardrails to that lift, which are now within reach.

The SCAFFSTEP can be used with traditional tube and fitting

scaffolding, and also with all types of system scaffold. The adjustable

feet accommodate the various guardrail heights and keep the platform

level.



43/164



The SCAFFSTEP can be used at any

position along the run of scaffold as it

does not rely on a standard for support.

This means that it can be used at stop

ends, returns, mid bay, and at changesin direction. SCAFFSTEP is frequently

used in pairs allowing fast, easy, and

safe installation of guardrails to the next

level.

Regulations and StandardsSCAFFSTEP conforms to the personal

fall prevention and hop up requirements

within SG4:05 Appendix A, the best

practice guidance for scaffold erection

published by the National Access andScaffolding Confederation. SCAFFSTEP

also complies with the European ladder

standard EN 131.

New FiligreeAttachmentPatent Pending | Art. Nos. 1233/4233

Designed for use with pre-cast concrete slabs, the new Filigree

Attachment allows the Steel Mesh Barriers or guardrails to be pre-

installed at ground level and lifted in to position with the pre-cast

unit. Thus avoiding the need to work at height.

This innovative attachment is easily positioned during the casting

process, being placed independently, rotated into position on its

three feet, and readily secured to the rebar to prevent movement

during the pour. It will accept loading in any direction and does,

therefore, not require careful orientation. The pre-cast units are

transported with the pre-cut plastic sleeves removed, simplifying

stacking on the lorry, and reducing the stored height.

Once on site, the units are off-loaded and the sleeves, which have

been cut to suit the finished slab thickness, are inserted. The SMB

Posts and Barriers are quickly fitted at ground level in total safety,

and the slab is then lifted into position. Once placed, the lifting

chains can be simply removed as the edges are already protected

and the area is secure.



45/164



Regulations and StandardsThe new Filigree Attachment, when

combined with the Safety Post and

SMB, provides an edge protection

solution that has been tested to confirm

compliance with the performance

requirements of EN 13374 Temporary

Edge Protection Systems, Class A. It is,

therefore, suitable for a vast range of

applications protecting the edges of

horizontal surfaces or those sloping up

to 10. Full performance information




Features and Benefitsn Can accept loading in any direction,

making positioning and placement

fast and easy.

n Does not rely on the rebar for

performance, and is only tied in to

prevent displacement during the

initial pour.

n Performs in accordance with the

requirements of EN 13374 Class A,

with either SMB or guardrails.

n Can accept most depths of pre-cast

unit and any finished slab thickness,

by adjusting the length of the cut

sleeve.

n Will perform in all types of concrete.

n Once quickly installed in the pre-

cast process, ensures fast and safe

pre-installation of edge protection

on site, avoiding the need to work at

height or to drill for fixings.

n When used with the adjustableSafety Post, allows the edge

protection to be raised and lowered

to ease placement of the topping.

n Edge protection is removed inside

the building once the cladding is

complete, and the plastic sleeves

are simply cut down and the holes

grouted up.

n The whole process is integrated

into the building method,

improving safety during the build,and satisfying the designers

responsibilities for co-ordination.
