About this detail

A cantilevered glass guardrail assembly is mounted at the edge of a structural concrete slab. The system features a stainless steel cap, laminated glass of manufacturer-determined thickness, and a base shoe seated over blocking. A two-by-three by zero-point-twenty-five-inch steel angle is anchored to the structural slab edge, supporting a four-by-four by zero-point-twenty-five-inch hollow structural section top rail welded in place. Additional four-by-four by zero-point-twenty-five-inch hollow structural section braces extend back to the structural steel framing at required intervals. Fiber-reinforced plastic panels face the assembly, running vertically past a future ceiling line down to a bottom hollow structural section rail.
