2.11.2.10 Where the minimum recommended static strength of 15 kN for a single anchor is not achievable, it is acceptable to link together a number of anchors of a lower static strength, e.g. by the use of a Y hang, to act effectively as a single independent anchor for either the working line or the safety line, as long as the load on each group of anchors is equally shared and the combined static strength is a minimum of 15 kN, see Figure 2.6b. To allow for foreseeable misuse, e.g. unequal loading, it is recommended that the minimum static strength of each anchor in this combination is 10 kN.© IRATA InternationalPart 2: page 52 of 682014-Jul-01IRATA International code of practice for industrial rope access Part 2 of 5: Detailed guidancea) Example of a Y hang arrangement where the strength of each individual anchor is 15 kN or greaterb) Example of a Y hang arrangement where the strength of each individual anchor is less than 15 kN and is equal to or greater than 10 kNKey
