25、hment point on the ACS designed to protect the climber Note 1 to entry: It can be permanent (cannot be removed with tools, e.g. a glue in anchor) or non-permanent (removable with tools, e.g. a hanger). 3.2.1 individual protection point intermediate protection point used to safeguard a climber in his

26、/her progress on the ACS 3.2.2 individual top protection point protection point which is fixed at the top of a climbing line and which is designed to take the rope of one climber Note 1 to entry: It can be used for top rope or lead climbing. BS EN 12572-1:2017EN 12572-1:2017 (E) 5 3.3 attachment poi

27、nt if permanent quick draws are installed the lower point of the device through which the rope passes Note 1 to entry: Without permanent quick draws the attachment point is the protection point. 3.4 collective top protection system protection system which is fixed at the top of a climbing line and w

28、hich is designed to take the ropes of several climbers at once Note 1 to entry: It can be used for top rope or lead climbing. 3.5 span part of a collective top rope system measured between two consecutive supports or attachments Note 1 to entry: See Figure F.2. 3.6 characteristic load maximum load t

29、hat can be generated in normal use 3.7 falling space space on or around the ACS that can be occupied by the user during a fall 3.8 free space space around the ground projection of the ACS that can be occupied by a climbing, a lowering, spotting or belaying user 3.9 hold removable climbing component

30、used for progression on an ACS or bouldering wall including bigger three dimensional, structural attachment without additional panel insert or other means of hold fixation Note 1 to entry: It should be noted that holds bigger than size XXL are called macros (see Table 1). 3.10 volume removable three

32、acement of individual protection points If there are individual protection points, the height of the first point shall not exceed 3,10 m. The distance x between the placement of the individual protection points (see Figure 1) from height h shall be determined as follows: 1 m if h 4 m; 1,10 m for h 4

33、 m; 1,20 m for h 5 m; 1,30 m for h 6 m; 1,40 m for h 7 m; 1,50 m for h 8 m; 2,00 m for h 10 m. The distance x may have a tolerance of 10 %. h is the distance between the point and the ground measured vertically, in metres, beneath the point in all cases. For protection points, the maximum distance s

34、hall be measured from the lowest internal point of the attachment point. If permanent quick draws are installed, the maximum distance shall be measured from lower quick draw end to lower quick draw end. A permanent quick draw (e.g. chain secure element, Maillon Rapide) shall be disassembled from the

35、 climbing wall by means of tools (see Figure 2). Protection points attached with bolts shall be secured, so they cannot come undone, e.g. with lock nuts.

36、 EN 12572-1:2017EN 12572-1:2017 (E) 8 4.2 Design of individual top protection points 4.2.1 General The rope shall not be able to escape from the top protection points at an untimely moment, e.g. single-snap-gate karabiner is not sufficient. Individual top protection points shall be attached to the s

37、tructure by two or more points of fixation. Each fixation point shall be calculated as a protection point. Each link between the fixing points shall have a resistance greater than or equal to each of the points which it joins together; this resistance shall be verified by either calculation (see Ann

38、ex A), or a document of compliance, or tests as defined in Annex C. 4.2.2 Dimensions The minimum dimensions of all protection points and stance points with the exception of individual and collective top protection systems shall be in accordance with Figure 3. Other designs meeting the requirements o

39、f Figure 3 are also permissible. The bar or device over or through which the rope passes in either a collective top protection system or an individual top protection point shall be rounded in accordance with Figure 4. Dimensions in millimetres Figure 3 Design of individual protection points BS EN 12

41、Annexes A, B and Figure 5. Ensure that the structure (e.g. building, concrete platform and ground) can safely accommodate the loads imposed by the ACS. Permanent protection points shall be calculated in accordance with Annexes A and B (e.g. glued protection points in concrete walls). Non-permanent p

42、rotection points shall have a breaking strength in the main load direction of a minimum of 20 kN. BS EN 12572-1:2017EN 12572-1:2017 (E) 10 NOTE The larger arrow indicates 6,6 kN. The smaller arrow indicates 1,6 kN. Figure 5 Placement of the loads on collective protection systems 4.3.2 Structural int

43、egrity of a protection point connection All elements of an ACS shall be justified by calculation, however in exceptional cases for protection point connections only (the assembly that attaches the actual protection point to the sub frame), a load test as described in Annex C is acceptable as a metho

44、d of evaluation. After applying the design load to the protection point connection there shall be no permanent deformation. After applying the breaking load to the protection point connection there shall be no breakage. 4.4 Impact resistance and deflection of surface elements When tested in accordan

45、ce with Annex D, there shall be no breaking or splitting of any surface element. The deflection of the panels shall be calculated by using the load 0,8 kN (see Annex A) or be tested in accordance with Annex D, D.5. When fixed according to the manufacturers specification, the maximum deflection of th

46、e surface element shall not exceed l/100: where l is the maximum length between the fixations of the surface. 4.5 Panel insert resistance To evaluate the panel insert concerning the resistance to breakage while mounting the climbing holds onto the wall or during climbing use, the panel inserts shall

47、 be tested in accordance with Annex E. After test step c) any resulting deformation shall not exceed 0,5 mm at 1,2 kN. After procedure e) there shall be no pull out of the panel insert. Five samples (panel-insert combination) shall be tested. 4.6 Proof testing When tested in accordance with Annex F,

48、 after settling under load there shall be no breaking, tearing or destruction of the elements after testing.

49、es not apply to climbing structures and other obstacle-free surfaces or walls capable of withstanding accidental impacts. The horizontal falling space shall be 2 m behind, 1,5 m either side and 8 m below the protection points in accordance with Figure 6. Dimensions in metres Key 1 protection point Figure 6 Falling space 4.8 Free space The free space shall allow the climber to land safely and other users to move without being obstructed by obstacles. 4.9 Climbing surfaces All reachable parts of the climbing surface shall be free of sharp ed
