Railing on Industrial Staircase (3-D SE)

"Civil Engineering" docking window" > Steel Engineering > Stairs+Railings > Railing > Railing on industrial staircase

You use this function to fit a railing for a straight staircase

Once you have called the function, HiCAD will prompt you to identify a stringer profile on the side of the railing to be generated. The Railing window will then be displayed.

You use the tabs:

Handrails and Posts
Infill
Mounting position

to define the parameters for the railing and how it is secured to the stairs. The last used values are saved and will be the new default setting when you call the function again.

Railings are fitted with the article number (designation) RAILINGS.

(1)	Hand rail	(6)	DXE Hand rail projection at end
(2)	Knee rail	(7)	DXPA Spacing between first post and step
(3)	Post	(8)	DXPE Spacing between last post and step
(4)	HR Railing height	(9)	DXU Spacing between lower boom and floor
(5)	DXA Hand rail projection at start	(10)	FM Maximum fill spacing

Proceed as follows:

Choose start and end of the hand rail
Specify whether you want the railing to be generated on one side or both sides of the stairs.

Hand rail start (left) and hand rail end, two-sided railing

Define the railing parameters in the Handrail+Posts, Infill and Mounting position tabs.
After specifying all required parameters, choose OK to close the window.
