A crew performing roofing work will install edge metal on a low-slope roof with an unprotected edge 12 feet above the lower level. What should the GC coordinate before the crew is exposed?

Correct Answer

D) Coordinate required fall-protection controls before exposure

Put a compliant fall-protection arrangement in place before exposing the crew. For the stated low-slope roofing work at 12 feet, section 1926.501(b)(10) applies. Select an allowed system appropriate to the roof and work; a short task duration, photo or move-in checklist is not a substitute.
