Asker: I wish I could help you guys more, but that's the line, "line stop", that is why I asked my client for more information, which I already gave.
Asker: Now I got a drawing from the client along with the following explanation: The line stop is a metal rod that prevent workers from swinging around the corner of the building in a fall arrest situation, keeps the line on the elevation where work is being done.
