Fall arrest anchor installation apparatus
A fall arrest anchor installation apparatus for a roof is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a projectile comprising a resiliently deformable projectile body, wherein an outer surface of the projectile body comprises at least one rounded portion. The apparatus further comprises a line connected to the projectile body at a first end of the line. The apparatus further comprises a bag arranged to be coupled to the line at or towards a second end of the line, the bag defining a closable opening to permit access to an inner portion of the bag, wherein the inner portion of the bag is configured to receive at least part of a fall arrest lifeline. The resiliently deformable projectile body and the bag are both configured to absorb energy of an impact with the roof; and the at least one rounded portion is configured to allow the projectile to roll along the roof. Fig.1
