Facade Inspection
Rope access is a beneficial technique for examining facades, which is more advantageous than using pipe scaffold or suspended platforms. It necessitates minimal setup, does not require heavy machinery, and can often be implemented in a shorter time frame and at a more affordable cost.
Furthermore, it is a time-efficient method of inspection, as it is quicker to deploy than a suspended platform but covers a similar façade region. Qualified IRA engineers will assess which roof components are appropriate for securing the ropes.

Facade Surveying
Architects and developers who desire to construct visually-striking edifices often seek out uncommon and environmentally-friendly materials. However, to really create a structure that stands out in its surroundings, a unique design, modern materials, and proper utilization of space are necessary components, thus leading to the construction of increasingly taller buildings.
Although these buildings may possess a gorgeous design, historic and modern engineered structures can be hard to access due to the aforementioned reasons.
Like any other building, the materials will eventually break down, making maintenance more inconsistent since access solutions have not been taken into account. That’s why, with regards to skyscrapers and other tall structures, rope access and abseiling are the most effective means to guarantee these captivating exteriors are appropriately maintained, surveyed, inspected, cleaned, repaired, and safeguarded.

Safety and Rescue Standby
Any activity conducted at extreme heights must adhere to rigorous SPRAT standards and regulations. Any task that requires working at a high angle must be carefully planned and controlled in preparation for an unexpected event.
It is necessary to preplan for the safety of workers who may slip or become incapacitated. In the event of an accident, the injured individual might be trapped in a location that is difficult to access. It can take hours of work before medical personnel can come and rescue them.
However, our specialists who have received SPRAT training can perform self rescue and lower the person to safety in a matter of minutes. Since these scenarios are immensely hazardous and require urgent attention, the crew must be ready with a prompt and efficient emergency and rescue plan. IRA’s Safety Standby Services are designed to meet the individual requirements of various high angle operations, such as: performing activities while working in Restraint.
