How far must a sliding pole extend above the platform or access structure?

  1. 18 inches

  2. 36 inches

  3. 60 inches

  4. 1.9 inches

The correct answer is: 60 inches

The correct answer is C 60 inches. This is because according to OSHA regulations, a sliding pole must extend at least 60 inches above the platform or access structure to ensure safe and easy access to the platform. Options A and B (18 and 36 inches) are too short and may not provide sufficient clearance for safe use. Option D (1.9 inches) is too low and would not meet the height requirement. Therefore, option C is the most appropriate choice.
