Climbing safety system

Climbing Safety Systems Workers climbing fixed ladders or poles need protection from falling. There are patented systems that attach permanently or temporarily to ladders on towers, bridges, antennas, or other equipment. A safety belt or harness worn by a climber connects to the climbing safety device. If a person falls, the device locks and stops the fall.

In 1964 ASSE assisted in the revision of the Walsh-Healey Act (the New Deal federal law setting safety protections for employees of government contractors whose contracts exceeded 10,000). A heavy emphasis on education for safety professionals began. Systems safety management emerged with the advent of the U.S. space program and membership climbed to 8,000. 

Heat transfer in reactors is often underplayed in undergraduate reactor engineering courses, but in practice it can be critical to their design and operation. The reactor designer or operator must ensure that temperature can be controlled to the required accuracy. An important calculation for any reactor designer is to determine whether thermal runaway is possible. This refers to a situation in which the reactor and associated temperature control system are unable to remove the heat generated by an exothermic reaction, and consequently the temperature climbs exponentially due to positive feedback until some other limit, such as a safety valve or control system, comes into play.
