About this detail

A vertical post formed from a one-half-inch by two-and-one-half-inch steel flat bar with plug-welded rails supports a steel guardrail and handrail assembly. The top rail consists of a two-and-one-half-inch outside diameter steel pipe, connected via a one-half-inch diameter steel rod to a one-and-one-half-inch outside diameter steel handrail supported by a one-half-inch steel flat bar. Intermediate horizontal rails are made of one-and-one-half-inch outside diameter steel pipe spaced at five-and-one-half-inch intervals. The vertical post rests on a one-half-inch steel base plate secured at the finish floor with Hilti KB TZ expansion anchors, with diameter and spacing sized by the stair manufacturer. All connections are specified to be welded, ground smooth, and painted.
