Aerial Lift Fall Protection: A Brief Lesson on Total Fall Distance
Here is a brief lesson on the importance of calculating Total Fall Distance when selecting appropriate fall protection equipment. The video was provided by George Flynn, a Compliance Assistance Specialist out of OSHA’s Englewood Area Office. Mr. Flynn gave this lesson to Kiewit Western District Superintendents in February of 2010.

Fluke 411 D & 416 D Laser Distance Meters
411D & 416D Fluke Laser Distance Meters
How many times in a day do you need to determine the distance between two objects? What about calculating area or volume? What if you didn?t need pull out a tape measure or ruler, at all?
Well, Fluke?s new Laser Distance Meters do the work for you. With quick calculations of distance formulas, instant measurements of the distance between two objects, and easy performance of distance addition and subtraction calculations, the 411D and 416D meters are a must have for any trade.
Laser distance meters use laser light waves in order to measure their reflection to precisely determine distances, making them better than ultra-sonic devices. These units use highly advanced measurement technology which makes them more accurate for measuring longer distances. You can confidently measure up to 60 m (200 ft) within 1.5 mm (1/16 in) accuracy with the 416D.
Many ultrasonic distance meters have a laser pointer, but it?s not used for measurement. This sometimes leads to confusion with a true laser distance meters. Ultrasonic meters emit a sound wave and measure the time for the sound wave to return to the unit. However, the returning sound wave is not always reflected from the target object; thus, an ultrasonic meter can often display false readings. Instead of sound waves, laser distance meters emit light pulses. These pulses reflect off the target and are received by the distance meter, at the speed of light. The difference between light and sound waves is proportional to the target distance, avoiding false readings.
Now, add in the rugged reliability customers expect from Fluke products and you?ve got the toughest, most accurate 200 ft distance meter on the market.
These uses for the Fluke laser distance meters are endless.
1. Provide accurate estimates for bidding out work (HVAC, electrical, cable, maintenance).Measure distances, area, and/or volume.
2. Measure height or width of buildings and other objects, by triangulation if needed.
3. Determine how square a room or object really is, or whether the sides are completely parallel.
4. Verify that new construction satisfies usage requirements.
5. Create as-built building dimensions where no blueprints are provided.
6. Measure distances over areas where obstacles in the way disallow the use of measuring tapes or wheels.
7. Measure ceiling height to determine equipment needed for access.
8. Set up collision detection for cranes without pulling tape and using two people and two aerial lifts.
9. Determine accurate room dimensions to ensure correct chemical concentration for Clean Agent Fire Suppression system.
And those are just to name a few.
