Walkway on roofs
On all buildings, the roof step/roof ladder and/or walkway shall always serve as an access route to devices on the roof requiring servicing and maintenance. This is if the roof pitch is greater than 6 degrees or the roof is made of a slippery surface layer Even at low inclines, a roof may be slippery when one walks on it. Slippery materials particularly include stainless steel sheet metal, aluzinc and felt roofs. Snow, frost and ice, damp surfaces or leaves substantially lower the friction between shoes and the walking surface. If devices are to be reached in these situations, a walkway must be in place. and vertical drop Even at low inclines, a roof may be slippery when one walks on it.
