Recommendations relating to the
documentation required after installation
New requirements of EN795:2012
For the user, the documentation on the installation provides evidence that the installation was
performed correctly. In addition, it serves as an essential foundation for further examination of the
anchor, because, in many cases, fixing anchors are not visible or accessible.
After installation, the installer sends the user copies of the documentation for the installation. This
documentation must be kept in the building for subsequent reviews of the anchor.
Documentation on the installation must contain at least the following information:
- The address and location of the installation;
- The name and address of the company that carried out the installation;
- The name of the person responsible for the installation;
- The product identification (manufacturer of the anchor, type, model / item);
- The fixing device (manufacturer, product, and transverse tensile forces eligible);
- The schematic plan of the installation, for example the roof, and information relevant to the user,
such as the position of the anchor points (for example relevant in case of snow).
Should be marked on the schematic plan of the building so that it is visible or available to all (for
example, at the point of access to the roof).
The statements made by the responsible installer must be signed by him and attest that at
least the anchor:
- Has been installed in accordance with manufacturer's installation instructions;
- Is consistent with the plan;
- Was attached to the specified support;
- Has been set as specified (eg, number of bolts, correct materials, position / location correct);
- Was put into service according to information supplied by the manufacturer;
- Came with photographic information / documentation, especially when the fasteners (eg bolts)
and the underlying support are no longer visible once installation is complete.
When several anchor points must be photographed for identification purposes, it is recommended to
mark the anchoring devices with numbers and incorporate this numbering in the inspection records of
the anchoring device and the ground plan in the installation area.
