What is the maximum permissible gap between a safety net and the structure?
The riggers aim will always be to rig a safety net with no gaps between the net edge and the structure to which it is attached, however a maximum permissible gap should be limited to 100mm wherever practical. It may not always be possible toachieve this in some circumstances i.e. lacing around columns service pipes etc, and in these exceptional circumstances gaps up to 225mm are allowed.
