One of the first substantial new builds of the new era of energy-efficient buildings for post-earthquake Christchurch, and one of the first buildings to use the new Roofsafe insulated toggle fixing method.
 
Challenge
 
Provide a fall arrest system to roof areas, attaching to a lightweight warmroof buildup while retaining the thermal properties of the warmroof.
 
Solution
 
Complete installation of Roofsafe Cable/Spirotech Anchor system to warmroof buildup, with insulated toggle fixings to maintain the thermal blanket of the warmroof. Torch-on membrane waterproofing finish. Working alongside SWP Roofing Contractors to produce waterproofing detail and installation methodology to satisfy all parties, the completed result was a very smart installation of a continuous lifeline cable system to the perimeter of the roof area.
