Body Belt w./ Lanyard
Body Belt w./ Lanyard
(OP)
I am interested to know how much force is needed to break a web lanyard free from its anchorage. Also how much shock loading is needed for a person to die when wearing such safety gear. Does any one know of any web site which has this type of information?

J. Nigel Ellis, Ph.D., CSP, P.E. is a leading expert in fall protection. A copy of his book "Introduction to Fall Protection" has example calculations etc.

bit of a problem with my earlier message.
Go to this page:-
http://www.hse.gov.uk/research/hsl/engineer.htm
Have a look at reports 2002/16 & 17 and 2003/09
They may be exactly what you are looking for, especially the last one "Survivable impact forces on human body constrained by full body harness".
Cheers,
