What is the minimum capacity required for a temporary fall arrest system anchor point to resist a fall?

500 LBS
600 LBS
700 LBS
800 LBS

The correct answer is: 800 LBS

The minimum capacity required for a temporary fall arrest system anchor point to effectively resist a fall is established at 5,000 pounds as per OSHA regulations. However, in the context of the choices given, while 800 pounds is higher than some of the other options provided, it typically falls short of industry standards. The correct choice based on safety practices and codes is to ensure that any fall arrest system is designed to withstand a minimum of 5,000 pounds of force to account for dynamic loads during a fall. This ensures that the infrastructure can adequately protect workers and prevent injuries in the event of a fall. It is imperative that fall arrest systems are used with anchor points that can handle the required load to maintain safety in any working environment.
