About this project
The Life Sciences Building at the University of Oslo is one of Norway's most significant university construction projects in recent years. Høyden Global delivered a fully engineered access and fall protection system for the building's roof and facade, designed to support safe inspection, maintenance and operational access throughout the building's lifetime.
Our scope of delivery
Certified horizontal rail system (EN795) — two metres from roof edge
Davit arm bases for rope access on facade sections
Wire-based fall protection system for additional roof coverage
All anchor points are engineered to a minimum load of 14kN. The system was modelled in full 3D and delivered as an IFC file for cross-discipline coordination.
