Railings

Roof safety railings and guardrails provide continuous protection against falls when workers are near roof edges or on elevated work surfaces such as flat roofs or complex sloped surfaces.

Is a guardrail considered fall protection?

Well built guardrails are a reliable and convenient means of fall protection because they act as a visible and physical barrier to help prevent falls from heights or between levels including falls from roofs, balconies, stairwells or falls into open holes.

What is the minimum thickness of the top rail of a guardrail?

Top rails and midrails shall be at least one-quarter inch (0.6 cm) nominal diameter or thickness to prevent cuts and lacerations.

What are the three main parts of a guardrail?

Guardrails have three main parts: a top rail, a mid rail, and a toe board.

How strong are guardrails?

OSHA's standard for the engineering of standard guardrails is that the guardrail must withstand a 200-pound force applied to the top of the rail in any direction.

Do I need a guardrail?

Generally, guardrails are required when the building has steps, landings, platforms or accessible roof spaces. According to the code, guardrails are required when there is a difference of 30 in. or greater between two upper and lower surfaces. OSHA requirements for guardrails are quite stringent.
