ABSTRACT:
A bracket has downwardly-projecting parallel legs for embracing and being secured to opposite sides of a rafter and an upwardly-projecting central portion having an aperture for connection of a standard snaphook or carabiner to which a lifeline can be attached. The legs of the bracket can be interconnected by a bolt extending through or below the rafter. In addition or alternatively, the bottom end portions of the legs can be bent inward underneath the bottom of the rafter. The bracket is used in a fall prevention safety system in which the lifeline tethers a roofer or other worker to the anchor.
