Commissioned by Van Wijnen, ATI Abseiltechnieken carried out an inspection of the steel structure of SC Cambuur’s Kooi Stadium. Periodic inspections are mandatory according to KNVB guidelines. Inspecting the steel structure above the stands is usually not possible using traditional aerial methods. With our abseiling techniques, this is possible and we offer a safe and efficient solution. The steel construction can also be used as an anchor point for our rope access specialists. They can thus climb through the steel construction and perform checks at various locations.
Working safely at height
Rope access is the safest way to work at height. A.T.I. Abseiltechnieken works exclusively according to IRATA and VCA guidelines. This means that all our personnel are trained to perform work at locations that are difficult to reach. Statistics collected worldwide by IRATA since the association’s inception show that the work/(near) accident ratio with rope access work is almost zero. Especially when compared with conventional aerial work methods.
No fixed equipment needed
For working at height, setting up a fixed installation is often considered, and for frequent maintenance this is often advisable. Apart from the purchase of an entire system, it must also be maintained and inspected. Employees may have to be trained to operate the system. However, when maintenance is infrequent or rare, working with rope access techniques is an excellent alternative. The cost of purchase and inspection is a huge saving and with the deployment of rope access abseiling techniques, only the actual maintenance work is charged for.
