We have designed a steel beam to use as the anchor point for a fall restraint system. We have designed the steel beam for a 5000 lb static load. The client has asked for a load rating that can be posted on the beam. Should the load rating for this beam be 5000 pounds (static design load) or 310 pounds (assumed weight used by OSHA to determine the use of a 5000# static load) or some other number?
