Access Inspect & repair
the tallest free-standing structure in UKHRS Services, have just completed a contract to inspect and repair local areas of concrete to the NTL Emley Moor Transmission Tower, which is the tallest free-standing structure in the UK.
Using HSE 'Good Practices' techniques as set out in IRATA (Industrial Rope Access Trading Association) guidelines, technicians from the sheffield based company used rope access to position themselves around and under the tower's working platforms, allowing them to first inspect and then carry out any necessary concrete and coating repairs.
All the HRS equipment is portable and extremely lightweight, allowing rapid set up and removal times. This speed and flexibility, combined with the safest method of working at height, makes rope access the preferred choice for difficult sites, such as Emley Moor.
