本标准规定了绳索作业的公认实践。适用于绳索悬挂或连接到结构或自然特征上的任何环境，并用作进出或支撑的主要方式，以及防止坠落的主要二次保护方式。注:本标准包括绳索进入工作期间使用的双绳系统（包括进度系统和备用系统）的使用和应用的最低程序、设备、组件和元件要求。 在适用的情况下，本标准为130磅至310磅（59千克至141千克）的授权绳索接入技术人员制定了包括绳索接入系统在内的关键设备的性能、设计、标记、鉴定、测试方法和说明要求。本标准应与其他坠落防护要求标准结合使用，以实现平衡管理的坠落防护计划。注:有关绳索接入系统的培训、使用、维护和停用的其他指南，请参见ANSI/ASSP Z359。 2.全面管理坠落防护计划的最低要求，该计划提供了总体计划管理的要求。

This standard sets forth accepted practices for rope access work. It is applicable for use in any environment where ropes are suspended from or connected to a structure or natural feature and used as the primary means of access, egress or support and as the primary means of secondary protection against a fall.NOTE: This standard includes minimum program, equipment, component and element requirements for the use and application of the two-rope system, including both progress system and backup system, required for use during rope access work.Where applicable, this standard establishes requirements for the performance, design, marking, qualification, test methods and instructions of key equipment comprising rope access systems for authorized rope access technicians within the capacity range of 130 pounds to 310 pounds (59kg to 141kg).This standard should be used in conjunction with other fall protection requirements standards in order to achieve a balanced managed fall protection program.NOTE: Additional guidance on training, use, maintenance, removal from service of rope access systems is addressed in ANSI/ASSP Z359.2, Minimum Requirements for a Comprehensive Managed Fall Protection Program, which provides the requirements for overall program management.
