사다리 안전 각도 및 길이 계산기

OSHA 4:1 Rule: base = h / 4 · L = √(h² + base²) · θ ≈ 75.5°–76°

안전한 사다리 설치 단계별 체크리스트

  • Set ladder base 4 ft away from wall (OSHA 4:1 rule for 16 ft height).
  • Verify ladder working reach L = √(16² + 4²) ≈ 16.49 ft.
  • Add 3 ft roof landing extension → select ladder ≥ 19.49 ft.
  • Safe OSHA Pitch (75.96°): Balanced against backward tip and base slip.

안전한 사다리 설치 단계별 체크리스트

01

Measure Eave or Support Height (h)

Determine the vertical contact height. Never guess ladder reach by height alone because angling the base consumes vertical length.

02

Set 4:1 Base Standoff (b = h ÷ 4)

Position feet out 1 ft per 4 ft of wall height (0.25 m per 1 m). This hits ~75.96°, squarely inside the OSHA 72°–78° safe pitch band.

03

Include +3 ft (+0.91 m) Roof Extension

When transitioning onto a roof deck, add 3 feet past the gutter/eave line so your hands maintain three-point grip while stepping off.

04

Perform Elbow & Foot Check

Stand upright with toes touching the ladder rails and extend arms straight ahead—your palms should comfortably touch the rung at shoulder height (~75.5°).
