Rail Termination 4. Fasteners 5. Glass Details 6. Glass Rail Warninas 7. Rail System Exploded Drawings Building Codes We consider ourselves a custom design and installation company and are very aware of the building code requirements for railings. All of our railings conform to the 2006 IRC and IBC. These are the International Residential Code and International Building Code respectively. Virtually all building departments follow these codes. However it is possible that a local jurisdiction may write a more restrictive code for their area. Knowing and meeting any local codes are not the responsibility of RailPro. It is the responsibility of the - customer to inform us of anything outside of the two codes noted above. Here are some of the most basic code requirements for residential railing. 1. Any walking surface greater than 30" off the ground requires a guardrail • 2. The rail height must he a minimum of 36" from the deck surface 3. There should be no opening that can pass a 4" sphere through the railing 4. Stairs with more than 3 risers must have a handrail The codes are quite extensive and often confusing and your local inspector may not be well versed in the areas of the code that apply to railing or is working to the 1997 UBC or the 2003 IRC instead of the most recent 2006 IRC. Or perhaps he's applying the IBC code to your home vs. the IRC. RailPro is well versed in the most recent codes and can help you work through any issues with the building inspector. When we quote your project, it will always be fora code compliant installation. If you want something outside of the code we'll require a signed waiver for our protection. Return to Contents • Post Attachments ' All our rail styles can be attached either to the surface or the fascia of the deck. There are some details that you need to be aware of to insure a safe and attractive installation. Surface Mount - This is the most common and least expensive attachment, It is usually the choice for level wood or composite decks. We require that you provide 3" of solid structural blocking to screw into. In the case of composites this must be 3" under the composite board. Waterproof Decks - If you have a waterproof deck, our first recommendation is that you consider fascia mounting. However, if this is not possible we have several options for you to consider to protect the integrity of the waterproofing. Please open this Tech Bulletin for more details. Mounting on Tile - We can mount to a tile surface but we do not recommend the practice. We require a signed waiver regarding any damage to the tile during installation or any time later. There is always the possibility that tile can crack. There are a couple of ways to avoid mounting through the tile. First would be to install the railing first and tile up to the base plates. Another way would he to install a raised footing for the post to mount en. Fascia Mount - This is most commonly used when there is a waterproof deck surface involved that you do not want to penetrate. We can mount to the fascia as long as certain conditions exist. These are: There is 6" of flat surface under the flashing; There is 3" of solid structural blocking at the attachment points; There are no other obstructions in the way, most commonly gutters.

Return to Contents Fasteners All the fasteners used by RailPrc are high grade stainless steel. This combined with the aluminum railing will provide you with a complete system that can not rust. While others may use coated or painted screws to cut cost we don't as we have seen these rust over the years. Rust will never happen with a RailPro installed rail All of our fasteners come in mill finish. While some colored stainless screws exist RailPro does not offer these. It is. our experience that the paint chips when driving the screws and we think it is unsightly to have the chipped inconsistent looking screws vs. a uniform look to all the screws. • Some of the standard screws we use are listed below. Pan head square drive screws #14 x 3" Used for mounting surface posts to the deck into blocking #14 x 2" Used for attaching top rail wall mounts to the house #12 x 1 1/2" Used for attaching the top rail to the post, also for attaching the bottom rail wall mount to the post or house #12 lek Self driving screw for attaching bottom rail to wall mount, also for attaching the post mount to the post Hex head lag bolt 1/4" x 4" Used for mounting fascia post into blocking, also for surface mounting through composite decking into blocking Return to Contents Glass Details Tempered Glass - All glass for our railing systems is fully tempered. This is crucial for the strength and safety of the railing. There is no alternative glass type appropriate for this application. Tempered glass is the same type of glass that you'll find in your shower door, patio door or side car window. It has tremendous strength against impact. As testament, tempered glass is used in hockey rinks. If it does break it literally explodes into tiny shards that may cause small cuts but won't create a huge blade to cut off an arm. Thickness - The standard glass for full frame rail is 1/4" thick. We use 3/8" thick glass for our topless glass rail. Edgework - RailPro provides all its glass with the exposed edges in a high polish. While others will cut corners with a rough seam or less expensive ground edge, RailPro only provides the best. On 1/4" glass we provide a pencil polish and on the 3/8" glass it's a beautiful furniture grade flat polish. Colors - All glass comes standard as clear. There are numerous tinted glasses that can be used. The most common are Bronze and Gray tints. Also available are Green, Blue and reflective glass but these are not common. Privacy Glass - We also have a glass called Matelux which is often used in privacy applications. This glass is translucent, that is it allows light through but not vision. It looks very similar to sandblasted glass but is guile different. See the explanation below in the Glass Rail Warnings section. Return to Contents Glass Rail Warnings This section provides some things to watch out for in' glass rail applications. Plastics Infills - Plastic is not a usable alternative as it has too much flex and can be pushed out of the opening.

The system is only as good as what we mount to. For example, when we mount our post onto concrete and apply a standard load to the top of the post there is virtually no deflection. Structurally the post is solid. This means that if the post is mounting on a deck, any load applied to the post is transferred directly to the connection to the deck. If there is inadequate blocking then there will be flexing at that connection and you have the possibility of breaking any /all the seals. Screws — We typically use a #14 x 3" stainless steel pan head square drive screw. We believe that one of the most important prevention steps is the mounting of the railing into 3" of solid blocking. Without solid blocking, all other waterproofing steps can be rendered worthless as all of these depend on maintaining a seal. If the base plate is not securely anchored to prevent any "rocking ", that seal has a much higher possibility of being broken Screw Caulking — The holes for the screws are predrilled with a 3/16" drill bit to about 2" in depth. We then dip the screw into polyurethane sealant filling the threads with sealant before installing the screws. This provides more seal between the wood and screw threads. It also fills the hole in the base plate with sealant and seals around the top shank of the screw and screw head. Washer /Gasket — We use a special stainless steel washer that has a bit of a crown at the hole. There is neoprene that is adhered to one side of this washer. It is placed on the screw and as the screw is cinched down this washer flattens out and forms a seal. Base Plate Gasket — We use an EPDM gasket under the base plate. This gasket is sized to be 1/8" less than the base plate. This under sizing provides a "channel" under the base plate to act a "key" if you choose to apply sealant around the base plate. The gasket also provides additional sealing around the screw. For the slope of the waterproof deck, we have a special wedge shape gasket that will adjust for a 1 /4" per foot slope. This eliminates the use of any shims to level the post. The gaskets work best on a smoother surface like metal flashing or a nontextured waterproof surface where compressing the gasket will fill in voids. Base Plate Caulking — Typically we do not caulk around the base plate as we believe that the steps taken above provide adequate protection. In addition if some how moisture did make it below the base plate, a bead of caulk would seal in the moisture. Sealed moisture is the worst condition you could create regarding structural damage. Mounting pedestal — An additional safety option is to use a ' /z" composite board pedestal base under the base plate and gasket. In the best situation, this is applied to the deck surface at the post position before the final coat of waterproofing. The bottom is covered with polyurethane and it is adhered to the deck surface. It is then drilled for the screws and you create a "sandwich" of post base, gasket, composite pedestal, polyurethane and deck coating. What this creates is a raised platform for the base plate so that water running by will not pool around the base plate.

Rail System Exploded Drawings Building Codes We consider ourselves a custom design and installation company and are very aware of the bui All of our railings conform to the 2006 IRC and IBC. These are the International Residential Cod respectively. Virtually all building departments follow these codes. However it is possible that a I restrictive code for their area. Knowing and meeting any local codes are not the responsibility of customer to inform us of anything outside of the two codes noted above. Here are some of the most basic code requirements for residential railing. 1. Any walking surface greater than 30" off the ground requires a guardrail 2. The rail height must be a minimum of 36" from the deck surface 3. There should be no opening that can pass a 4" sphere through the railing 4. Stairs with more than 3 risers must have a handrail The codes are quite extensive and often confusing and your local inspector may not be well ver. apply to railing or is working to the 1997 UBC or the 2003 IRC instead of the most recent 2006 I IBC code to your home vs. the IRC. RailPro is well versed in the most recent codes and can hel the building inspector. When we quote your project, it will always be for a code compliant installation.
