Here are the three categories of rope rescues based on their angle, and the differences between each approach.Ī rescue situation that involves angles of up to about 15-35 degrees is considered low angle. At lower angles, at most or all of the rescuer and victim’s weight are supported by the ground which, in most situations, are stable. This is because at higher angles, more weight is dependent on the rope setup. When it comes to rescue scenarios, the higher the angle, the more challenging and technical the rescue becomes. Rope access is used in a variety of industrial, commercial and rescue situations.
