Steel erectors have learned over the last several years about the benefits of the quick attach-ing Beamguard™, for steel erection. Beamguards™ come in various sizes (and a 90° version for

trusses) to cover beams and girders up to 5' flange thickness and any width flange. However, many steel erectors have asked repeatedly for a system they can use when setting beams on

concrete piers or columns, or while setting precast members, including double T and bulb T beams for bridge and building work.

Guardian has recently introduced a patented system called the Bridge and Form Guard™ that provides overhead horizontal lifeline anchorage for two workers working together while setting precast with post spacing of up to 60'. Clearance below, with spacing as much as 50', is less than 11' (with retractors). The system requires a cored hole for the pole to be set in at least 8" deep in the top of concrete. Simple embeds (PVC or metal pipe sleeves) are the easiest and require a little planning during the concrete pour and are acceptable to most design engineers. The system is a series of special strength and shock absorbing aluminum poles with shock absorbing toppers that provide a means to dissipate the energy from the fall arrest, while maintaining rigidity to minimize total fall distances. Lightweight intermediate poles save on weight, installation costs, and overall system costs.

Standard shock absorbing lanyards or retractables may be used on the horizontal lifeline and two workers may work within any two poles. Other workers may work on the system as long as poles separate them from others. Any reasonable number of lightweight intermediate poles may be used in one line, with an end pole at the terminating end, and workers can travel long distances.

Pass-Thrus™ at intermediates (a popular option on the Beamguard™), are being developed for the new system to minimize the use of the second lanyard technique for 100% tie off. The system is useful for fall protection for erectors connecting to any concrete structure, or setting concrete precast. The installation and construction safety specialists at Guardian can help you with a special application, as unique fall protection needs of erectors is Guardian Fall Protection’s specialty.

Guardian is proud that their products are designed for and by erectors in the field. The new system is added to the Guardline™, a total system that covers virtually all erectors’ exposures.Other products included in this family are the best-selling Beamguard™, Concrete Guard™,Rafter Guard™, and Column Guard™.

ToppersDual and 4-Way Toppers allow for instant horizontal lifeline configuration on site.

Custom MountingAttachmentFor applications where penetration of precast or embeds are not allowed or are inconvenient, a rigid base mounting system is available. This reusable system is available to fit all bulb T and standard girders. Some customization (of flange hooks and widths) may be needed.
