Over the years, the Julius Blum & Co., Inc. Catalog has often been called the “bible” of the architectural metal trades. Published every four to five years, our hard-cover catalog not only contains our full line of stock components for architectural metal work but also includes indispensible engineering data to aid in the design of structurally sound and code compliant railing systems.

In addition to publishing this Catalog, we also publish an annual brochure which is inserted in the Sweet’s General Building and Reno-vation volumes—Section 05720/BLL. That brochure is a condensed version of this book but it will contain new items that have appeared since the publication of Catalog 18.

Our companion CD 18 is enclosed with this book. In addition to all information available in the print Catalog, the CD contains download-able CAD drawings of all Julius Blum products as well as the com-plete Guide Specifications. Our website, www.juliusblum.com, contains additional information concerning new products and photos of completed projects.

HistoryJulius Blum & Co., Inc. was founded by Julius Blum in a Manhattan basement in 1910. Initially his business was limited to ornamental iron for local fabricators. Bronze handrails and door saddles were added in the 1920s, aluminum handrails in 1930 and a full line of bronze items in 1948. Continuing to respond to industry demand, we devel-oped and tested our JB® Glass railing system in 1980 and reintro-duced nickel-silver handrail components in the early 1990s.

Julius Blum’s nephews, Bill Thurnauer and Walter Blum, took the helm following World War II; we continue to be a family business to this day with Joanne Blum as president.

Despite our growth and the changes in the industry over the years, we have not lost sight of Julius Blum’s desire to serve his custom-ers by carrying quality materials—in stock and in substantial quanti-ties—and providing prompt service.

QUALity CoNtroLProviding quality material has always been a tradition at Blum. The majority of our items are purchased for architectural use where finish is of prime importance. All items stocked by Blum are purchased, stored and shipped with this in mind.

BUILDING CODE REQUIREMENTSBuilding code requirements and safety rules vary from one localityand from one type of structure to another, and are subject to periodicrevision. Therefore it is incumbent upon designers to acquaint them-selves and comply with the various codes and regulations governingeach project.

HANDRAIL & GUARDRAILJulius Blum & Co., Inc. has always stocked a wide range of handrailmouldings to suit many needs and conditions, but not all Blum hand-rails are suitable for all applications. Accessibility standards and codeauthorities often have dimensional limitations on handrail size whicheliminate larger handrail mouldings from consideration. Confirmwhether size limitations apply to your installation before specifying.

Most building codes differentiate between handrail and guardrail.Handrails are generally defined as being used for guidance and sup-port while the purpose of guardrails is to resist accidental falls. Handrailheights are commonly between 34" and 38", while guardrails are 42" in height.

There is often a requirement that a guardrail have a handrailincluded as well.

The detail to the right provides an example of a JB® Glass Railingused as both a guardrail and a handrail. The 31⁄2" cap rail is at a heightof 42"—too high and too large for use as a handrail. A 11⁄2" pipe handrailsection is mounted at a proper handrail height of 36". As shown, thehandrail is mounted using a 307 bracket and a 224 glass mountingadapter kit. The tempered glass must be drilled prior to tempering topermit use of the adapter kit (see page 10 for more information).

CONSTRUCTION CODES AND STANDARDSLike all other aspects of building construction, handrails, balusters andguards must conform to various regulatory requirements. Unfortu-nately, the requirements are not uniform and, therefore, they must beverified for the jurisdiction in which a project is located. Generally, oneor more of the following model codes will be enforced.

International Code Council (ICC) International Building Code 2003International Residential Code 2003

Building Officials and Code Administrators (BOCA) National Building Code

International Conference of Building Officials (ICBO) Uniform Building Code

Southern Building Code Congress International (SBCCI) Standard Building Code

National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 101 Life NFPA 101 Life Safety Code 2003

The International Code Council (ICC), [BOCA, ICBO and SBCCI]has collaborated on the development of a single model building codeentitled the International Building Code (IBC) and a separate modelcode for one and two family dwellings and attached single familydwellings not exceeding three stories entitled the International Resi-dential Code (IRC). The first editions of these codes were available inJanuary 2000. It is anticipated the IBC and the IRC will gradually replacethe other model building codes in the United States.

AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACTIn addition to the applicable building code, the requirements of theAmericans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Architectural Barriers Act(ABA) adopted by Congress must be complied with. These lawsrequire that all new and certain existing places of public accommoda-tion and commercial facilities be designed and constructed to beaccessible to and usable by persons with disabilities.

The Americans with Disabilities Act adopted by Congress in 1992required handrails to be 11⁄4" minimum and 11⁄2" maximum. However,the US Architectural and Transportation Barriers Compliance Boardpublished the ADAAG Manual—A Guide to the Americans with Dis-abilities Act Accessibility Guidelines—July 1998 has now properly clar-ified the intent of the dimensional requirements to be 11⁄4" minimum toa nominal 2" maximum. It should be noted that Section 4.26.2 Sizeand Spacing of Grab Bars and Handrails of the ADAAG Manualstates in part, “Standard IPS pipe designated by 11⁄4" to 11⁄2" inches is acceptable.”

HANDRAIL DIMENSIONSThrough the effort of the Building Code Modernization Council, themodel building codes, the Life Safety Code and ICC/ANSI A117.1-03similar requirements for handrail size as described below:Circular Cross Section. Handrails shall have a circular cross sectionwith an outside diameter of 11⁄4" (32mm) minimum and 2" (51mm) max-imum, or shall provide equivalent graspability.Non-Circular Cross Section. Handrails with other shapes shall bepermitted provided they have a perimeter dimension of 4" (100mm)minimum and 61⁄4" (160mm) maximum, and provided their largestcross-section dimension is 21⁄4" (57mm) maximum.

HANDRAIL CLEARANCEDuring the past several years the amount of finger clearance required forhandrails has been the subject of much regulatory discussion. It isbelieved a consensus as to what clearance should be required has beenreached by most standards committees and regulatory bodies. The tra-ditional clear space between a wall or other surface and a handrail of 11⁄2"has been accepted as the most beneficial space. The following codesand standards specify a wall clearance of 11⁄2" minimum.

International Building Code 2003ICC/ANSI A117.1-03The Access Board Guidelines, published in the Federal Register

July 23, 2004.Another current regulatory issue has been finger clearance from

handrail brackets. The InternationalBuilding code 2003, ICC/ANSI A117.1-03 and the Access Board Guidelinespublished in the Federal Register on July23, 2004 all contain requirements forunder handrail clearance similar to thosecontained in the IBC as shown below.

1009.11.4 Continuity. Handrail grip-ping surfaces shall be continuous, with-out interruption by newel posts or otherobstructions.

Exceptions: 3. Handrail brackets orbalusters attached to the bottom sur-face of the handrail that do not projecthorizontally beyond the sides of thehandrail within 11⁄2" (38mm) of the bot-tom of the handrail shall not be consid-ered to be obstructions and providedfurther that for each 0.5" (13mm) ofadditional handrail perimeter dimensionabove 4" (102mm), the vertical clear-ance dimension of 11⁄2" (38mm) shall bepermitted to be reduced by 0.125" (3mm).

The following table illustrates the approximate minimum clearancerequired from the bottom of a circular handrail to a handrail bracket.

Nominal Actual Outside Outside ClearanceIPS Diameter Diameter Perimeter Required

11⁄4" 1.66" 5.21" 11⁄4"11⁄2" 1.90" 5.97" 11⁄8"

STRUCTURAL REQUIREMENTSStructural requirements for handrails, guardrails and grab bars are fre-quently expressed in two ways. An applied loading distributed uni-formly along the rail and nonconcurrently a concentrated load appliedat any point along the top rail. The designer should consult the gov-erning codes, local ordinance, project specifications and regulatoryauthorities to determine specific structural requirements. An excellentsource of design load requirements can be found in ASCE/ANSI 7 Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures publishedby the American Society of Civil Engineers.

The information on this page is intended to be helpful to architectsand specifiers. However it is imperative to contact the appropriate localcode authority for current information.

JB® Glass Railing is a system of metal railing components for usewith 1⁄2" or 3⁄4" tempered glass panels as structural balusters.

Aluminum Shoe Mouldings are designed to support a designload of 300 lbs. applied at any point at the top of a railing up to 42" in height. Proper mounting of the shoe moulding is crucial to thestrength of JB® Glass Railing. Test results are available upon request or from our website, www.juliusblum.com. Mechanicalproperties of glass may be verified with supplier of glass panels.

Shoe mouldings are supplied in two configurations and two alloys.Available for 1⁄2" and 3⁄4" tempered glass, the heavier sections, in alloy6063-T52, may be anodized and are better suited for bending and fas-cia mounting. The lighter section is extruded in high-strength alloy6061-T6 to provide required strength with minimum weight. All threesections can be surface mounted—exposed or with a sheet metaltrim—or set flush with the floor surface.

A Protective Insert prevents direct metal to glass contact andfits closely inside the recess in the handrail mouldings that aremounted to the glass with an adhesive selected at the discretionof the specifier.

The Setting Block supports and cushions the lower edge of theglass while centering it in the channel of the shoe moulding.

Glass panels are set in the shoe moulding using a filler selectedat the discretion of the architect or fabricator. Do not use epoxy-based fillers.

For matching wall-mounted or glass mounted handrail, use Carlstadt® wall brackets with matching tubing sections or JB® GlassRailing sections and concealed, inserted closure.

The glass tempering process requires that all fabrication be completed prior to tempering. Attempts to cut, drill or grind the edgesafter tempering are likely to cause breakage.

Aluminum glass rail sections are extruded from alloy 6063-T52and, when properly fabricated, are suitable for anodizing, includingmost of the hard-coat anodic processes. Black anodizing may result ininconsistent matches. Consult your anodizer before specifying.

Bronze glass rail sections are extruded from alloy C38500,architectural bronze.

Nickel-Silver extrusions are of alloy C79800. Nickel-silver is a copper alloy, similar in appearance to stainless steel with goldenhighlights. Nickel-silver sheets are available in various widths for use ascladding for shoe mouldings.

Stainless Steel glass rail sections are roll-formed, type 302/304(18-8). It is important to be aware that connections of roll-formed stain-less steel shapes require special attention to assure proper alignment.

Acrylic/Wood glass rail section is produced from oak which hasbeen impregnated with acrylic plastic according to the Permagrain®

Radiation Process. This provides a hard surface and permanent finishwhich has twice the resistance to indentation and several times theresistance to abrasion as the same conventional hardwood finish. It islaminated from several strips to obtain greater strength and continuousuniform lengths.

All items are carried in stock in substantial quantities for promptshipment.

CORNER BENDS, MITER CORNERS, END CAPSRadius and miter elbows match the contour of 1.900", 2½", 3", 3½", and 4" round tubing shapes. Either style of elbow may be used as a wall return and is attached to handrail by use of internal connector sleeves and structural adhesive. End caps are available for most sections and may be attached by structural adhesive.

HANDRAIL AND TUBINGJB® Glass Railing top mouldings are available in several shapes and sizes in aluminum, bronze, nickel-silver, stainless steel, and oak acrylic/wood. Handrails may be wall mounted using Carlstadt® brackets with an anchor plug or by using available matching 1.900", 2½", 3", 3½", and 4" tubing. Handrails may be mounted directly to the glass using Glass Mounted Handrail Kit with Carlstadt® wall brackets.

GLASS MOUNTINGResilient setting blocks support and cushion glass panels as they are inserted in the shoe. Setting blocks should be 4" to 6" long and placed at points ¼" and ¾" distance from edge of the length of the panel from each end. Space is allowed for plumbing and setting of glass—choice of filler material is at the discretion of the specifier/fabricator. Spacer blocks, ¼" thick, should be inserted between adjoining glass panels to prevent glass to glass contact.

MATCHING STOCK PARTS SPEED FABRICATION AND ASSEMBLY

HANDRAIL ASSEMBLYA vinyl protective insert protects the top edge of the glass panel and fits closely inside the handrail molding—a windshield sealer type clear adhesive is recommended. Intermediate rails may be attached directly to the glass (holes must be drilled before tem-pering) using the Glass Mounted Adapter Kit and Carlstadt® wall brackets. Splice connections for tubular sections are accom-plished with internal connector sleeves and structural epoxy.

RE: WJE No. 820960JB Glass Railing Tests

Gentlemen:At your request, we have conducted tests on aluminum shoe

mouldings specified for the JB Glass Railing System. It is our under-standing that this particular railing system uses 1⁄2"-thick temperedglass as a balustrade to support aluminum, bronze, or stainless steelhandrail mouldings. The glass panels are mounted in the aluminumshoe mouldings, which are the subject of this testing.

The objective of these tests was to obtain information concerningthe load versus deflection characteristics of two types of shoe mould-ings, mounted in several different ways. In addition, the tests were todemonstrate that the shoe mouldings could withstand loadings wellin excess of current Model Code regulations, without failure or signif-icant deformation. Most Model Code regulations require a uniformloading of 50 lbs. per lineal foot, and some require a 200-lb. concen-trated load. These loads are not to be applied concurrently.

In the tests conducted and described in our report designatedWJE No. 820960, dated January 13, 1983, concentrated loads of 400lbs. to 800 lbs. were applied at approximately 42" from a referencedfloor surface. The test sections were 4' long. The test results and engi-neering calculations show that the strength of the shoe mouldingswhich were tested would exceed the above-mentioned Model Codeloading criteria by a factor of four.

Very Truly Yours,John M. HansonPresidentWISS, JANNEY, ELSTNER ASSOCIATES, INC.

Angle fittings are carried in stock for 29°, 32°, 35°, and 38° angles ofinclination. To select the correct angle fitting for a stairway, plot theintersection of riser and tread dimensions on the chart above. The zoneinto which the intersection falls will indicate the correct angle value for fittings.

Example: A 7" riser and a 10" tread require 35° angle fittings.

MANUAL RIVET HEADERThe Manual Rivet Header is a low-cost hand tool for setting theinternally threaded tubular rivets.

TUBULAR RIVETSAluminum

SEMS SCREWS AND THROUGH BOLTStainless Steel

The internally threaded tubular rivet is easily set in Connectorail® pipewall. The rivet provides high-strength 1⁄4"–20 threads for blind attach-ment of Connectorail® tee fittings.

SEMS Screw RHMS 1⁄4"–20 × 21⁄2" or 3"RHMS 1⁄4"–20 × 1" with lock nutwith lock washer

SEMS Screws: SEMS Screws prevent accidental omission of lockwashers and subsequent loosening of joints. The combination of1⁄4"–20 × 1" stainless steel RHMS with lock washers and internallythreaded tubular rivet fasteners provides connections of amplestrength to develop the full loading capacity of Connectorail® pipe. Through Bolts: Where two 90° tees are mounted opposite each otherto form a cross assembly, a stainless steel through bolt with lock nutmay be used.

For 11⁄4" pipe, use 1⁄4"–20 × 21⁄2" RHMS with lock nut.For 11⁄2" pipe, use 1⁄4"–20 × 3" RHMS with lock nut.

ALUMINUM

SPECIAL CHARACTERISTICSConnectorail® is a pre-engineered pipe railing system with prefabri-cated components. It is fabricated with ordinary tools and withoutwelding. It is designed to meet established safety standards.

The structural integrity of the railing system depends on properselection of components, proper number and location of supports andcorrect assembly and installation. The data and instructions in this cat-alog make it easy to meet these conditions (see engineering data onpages 123-130). Most fittings are dimensioned in whole inches to facil-itate layout. Confirm dimensions prior to cutting and/or assembly.

POSTSHigh strength posts and the use of reinforcing inserts are recom-mended to permit longer spans and to comply with the most stringentloading requirements. Fascia Flanges and Heavy-Duty Floor Flangesinclude reinforcing inserts. Refer to page 130 for post spacing tables.

SPLICE JOINTSSplice joints are secured by internal connector sleeves with the use ofepoxy adhesive. Connector sleeves must be ordered separately unlessa sleeve is already welded into the fitting, as it is in tees, wall returnsand miter elbows. Sleeves are made for a tight press fit and must becompressed with pliers or “C” clamps to permit them to slip into thepipe. Care must be taken to keep the sleeves round. Pipe ends mustbe cut square and to accurate length to assure smooth, tight joints.

The areas to be joined should be cleaned thoroughly. The adhesiveis mixed according to manufacturer’s directions. Do not mix more thanyou can use within 1⁄2 hour. Apply adhesive to inside of pipe. Fit com-ponents together and wipe off excess adhesive. Leave undisturbed foreight hours—longer in cold weather.

All splices should be made as near as possible to a post, in no eventmore than 12" from the nearest post

SCOTCH-WELD® EPOXY ADHESIVECatalog No. 3M EC-2216 B/A, Clear Amber Recommended for splice joints using connector sleeves. The areas tobe joined should be cleaned thoroughly.The adhesive is mixed accord-ing to manufacturer’s directions.

Cans —1 qt. total Tubes — 4 oz. total

About one half of the 5"-long sleeveshould be inside each of the pipe ends.

Apply adhesive to inside of pipe.

EXPANSION JOINTSExpansion joints should be provided for continuous runs in excess of40' or at places where building structure provides expansion joints. Ifa joint is provided every 20', the width of the gap should allow 1⁄8"expansion for each 40°F of expected temperature rise. To make anexpansion joint, the internal connector sleeve is left unattached at oneend so that it is free to move in and out of the pipe.

TEE FITTINGSTee fittings are secured to the post or rail by means of an internallythreaded tubular rivet inserted into the wall of the pipe and a stainlesssteel machine screw and lock washer. When two 90° tees are mounteddirectly opposite each other to form a cross, a stainless steel throughbolt and lock nut may be used.

Drill pipe with drill size Q or 11⁄32" hole. Screw a rivet sleeve-side firstonto the mandrel of the tool. Hold the tool in one hand. Using the tool,insert the rivet into the hole until the tool comes to rest against the par-ent material. Upset rivet by pressing handles together.

distance between center line and edges of the rectangle. On the newlines, mark 1" above and below the horizontal center line. Wrap thetemplate around the post so that its horizontal center line is on a levelwith the intersection of center lines of the post and the rail. The markson the template will indicate the location of holes.

MOUNTING POSTSEmbedding in concrete: Posts embedded in concrete should be set toa depth of 5" below the surface of floor or tread. Allow for a 1" groutpad beneath post. Provide a hole 21⁄2" to 3" in diameter to leave roomfor grouting cement and to allow for adjustment to field variations. Aquick setting grout is recommended for setting posts. For outdoorinstallation, weep holes should be drilled in the posts just above theground. The reinforcing insert will prevent water from collecting belowground level. Where aluminum surfaces are embedded in concretethat contains corrosive components, a coat of zinc chromate primer orequivalent must be applied.

Surface Mounting: Sleeve anchor bolt 3⁄8" × 3" is recommended foruse with heavy-duty floor flange. Drill 3⁄8" hole in concrete or masonryto 3" depth. Drill holes which conform to ANSI standard carbide bitdimension (.390" to .398"). Clean out dust in hole after drilling. Insertsleeve bolt in hole, hand tighten, then tighten with wrench to a maxi-mum torque of 30 ft. lbs. Use heavy-duty floor flange as a template forlocating holes. Minimum distance from centerline of hole to edge ofconcrete is 2".Fascia Mounting: Disassemble the fascia flange, which includes areinforcing bar, by removing two screws from the back of the plate. Drilltwo 7⁄16" holes in the post, one hole 11⁄4" from the lower end, the secondone 4" on center from the first, so that they align with holes in the rein-forcing insert. The reinforcing insert is slipped inside the post and theunit is reassembled and mounted, using 3⁄8" bolts. While the unit is dis-assembled, the plate of the fascia flange may be used as a template tolocate the holes for mounting the flange.

For outdoor installation of aluminum, the metal must be kept fromdirect contact with concrete or dissimilar metal by application of bitu-minous paint or methacrylate lacquer.

ANODIZED FINISHESWhen clear anodized components are supplied, no further finishing isnecessary. Any other specified finishes are the fabricator’s responsi-bility and components will be supplied with mill finish only. All stain-less steel fasteners must be removed before anodizing.

1"

1"

Set tubular rivet in hole, usingsetting tool. Upset rivet bypressing handles together.

Draw the fitting up tight with a stainless steel screw and lock washer.

Draw the fittings up tightlyfrom both sides, using astainless steel lock nut.

Use reinforcing bar and coverflange. Drill weep hole 1⁄4" abovecover flange. Apply zinc chromateprimer or equivalent to surfacesembedded in concrete. Set in floorto a depth of 5" and grout.

Holes for angle tees, except 4° ramptee, are located 1" above and belowintersection of center lines of pipe,regardless of stair angle.

The use of a lock washer or lock nut is essential because theassembly must remain tight once it is completed. There is no way to re-tighten an assembled railing. Stainless steel screws are requiredbecause they provide maximum strength. The 1"-long screws are supplied with the lock washer already in place.

To locate holes to be drilled for angle tees and crosses, request ourdrilling template or make your own template as follows: Draw a rec-tangle of a width equal to the circumference of the pipe (5.21" for 11⁄4"pipe, 5.97" for 11⁄2" pipe), about 3" to 4" high. Draw the horizontal andvertical center lines. Draw two more vertical lines at one half the

ARC-FIT PIPE NOTCHER FOR 90° TEE JOINTSThe Arc-Fit notches one side of the pipe end to match the contour of apipe of the same size. The pipe is then rotated 180° and the operationrepeated on the opposite side. The resulting notch forms a tee jointwithout burr or deformation, ready for welding.

This Arc-Fit unit consists of a #35 standard housing with the appro-priate punch and die assembly. Assemblies are interchangeable andare stocked for 3⁄4" to 2" standard pipe sizes. The spring loaded unitmay be operated in a power press—8 ton capacity; 6" shut height; 5⁄8"min. stroke—or the #1400 Arc-Fit hand press.

ARC-FIT PIPE NOTCHER FOR ANGLE JOINTSNotching pipe for angle joints requires two die assemblies for each sizemounted in a #75AB Arc-Fit Double Housing and operated by a powerpress – 30 ton capacity; 6" shut height; 1" stroke. Since 35° is consid-ered an average for railing work, die assemblies are stocked for thatangle in 11⁄4" and 11⁄2" standard pipe sizes. Joint angle can be varied by a few degrees in assembly.

HANDRAIL MOULDINGS, FITTINGS AND CASTINGS

between extruded handrail and cast fittings, butt joints usually requirespecial attention to assure proper match.

All items are carried in stock in substantial quantities and are nor-mally available for immediate shipment. Materials are produced andhandled with great care. Items are thoroughly protected for shipmentby wrapping and/or crating so as to assure a product well-suited forarchitectural finishing. For structural engineering data, see pages 123-130. For handrail brackets, see pages 86-95.

Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA): The Americans withDisabilities Act adopted by Congress in 1992 required handrails to be11⁄4" minimum and 11⁄2" maximum. However, the ADAAG Manual—July 1998, published by US Architecture and Transportation BarriersCompliance Accessibility Guidelines, has now clarified the intent ofthe dimensional requirements to be 11⁄4" minimum to a nominal 2"maximum. It is important to note that Section 4.26.2 Size and Spac-ing of Grab Bars and Handrails of the ADAAG Manual states in part,“Standard IPS pipe designated by 11⁄4" to 11⁄2" is acceptable.”

ADAAG also allows handrails which provide an equivalent grippingsurface. ANSI117.1-98 defines this alternative: equivalent gripping surfaces are permitted provided they have a perimeter dimension of 4" (100mm) minimum and 61⁄4" (16mm) maximum and provided theirlargest cross-section dimension is 21⁄4" (57mm) maximum.

This section illustrates the numerous handrail mouldings, fittings, andornamental railing components carried in stock in aluminum, bronze,nickel-silver, steel, and stainless steel. Most can be used with the var-ious railing systems described elsewhere in this catalog.

Aluminum extrusions are of alloy 6063 which is preferred for itsbright color, corrosion resistance, and ease of fabrication. It is suitablefor anodizing, including most of the hard coat color finishes.

Bronze extrusions are of alloy C38500, architectural bronze,preferred for its rich gold color and workability.

Nickel-Silver extrusions are of alloy C79800. Sometimes referredto as white bronze, nickel-silver is a copper/nickel alloy. It is similar incolor to stainless steel, with golden highlights.

Stainless Steel components are of type 304, 18-8, chromenickel alloy which has high resistance to corrosion.

Steel handrails are hot-rolled carbon steel, C1010.Cast aluminum fittings are produced from Almag 35, suitable for

clear anodizing. Bronze castings are of alloy C86500 for a good colormatch with extruded bronze. Nickel-silver fittings are cast to matchextrusions. All non-ferrous fittings are satin finished; bronze and nickel-silver fittings are protected with a clear lacquer. Fittings for use withsteel handrail are cast from malleable iron which is weldable and bend-able. It is important to be aware that due to the difference in tolerances

HANDRAIL MOULDINGSA wide selection of handrail mould-ings are available from stock inaluminum, bronze, nickel-silver,stainless steel and steel. Match-ing fittings are available for manyhandrail profiles.

POSTS AND ORNAMENTALBALUSTER BARSOrnamental baluster bars are avail-able in 36" and 42" lengths. Postsare produced from solid stock.Baluster bars may be combinedto meet 4" space requirements.

POST CAPS, COLLARS,FINIALSA variety of post caps, collars, andfinials are available in aluminum,bronze, nickel-silver, stainlesssteel, and steel to meet a varietyof design applications.

Acrylic/Wood rail is a prefinished compositematerial which retains all the beauty of naturalhardwood—oak, walnut and ash—but is pro-vided with a hard, lustrous acrylic surface. Thisis achieved by impregnating the wood withacrylic plastic and hardening it by irradiation.The composite has twice the resistance toindentation and several times the resistance toabrasion as the same hardwood finished con-ventionally. Acrylic/Wood is laminated fromstrips so as to obtain greater strength and con-tinuous, uniform lengths.

TREILLAGE AND ORNAMENTAL RAILING PANELS

Many of the Julius Blum Treillage patterns are available in both Alu-minum and Malleable Iron. Aluminum castings are recommendedwhere it is important to keep weight at a minimum, as in gates orremovable screens. Otherwise, malleable iron castings are preferredfor their strength and resistance to breakage. All castings are doublefaced and cleanly finished.

Malleable Iron is similar in weight, feel and appearance to grayiron—commonly known as cast iron. Gray iron is suitable for small,simple pieces such as post caps, or heavy, solid pieces such as man-hole covers. It is not suitable for delicate ornamental cast patterns suchas scrolls and flowers. Gray iron is brittle and shatters easily whendropped or hit and it is subject to cracking when exposed to unevenheat during welding. Malleable Iron will not break or shatter in thecourse of ordinary handling or shipping and withstands considerableabuse. To some degree, malleable iron castings can be bent cold andthey are easily welded. The special properties of malleable iron are pro-duced by heat treating specially alloyed castings in large furnacesunder precisely controlled temperature conditions for 8 to 10 days.

Malleable Iron Castings are not priced to compete with gray ironcastings. Despite the unsuitability of gray iron for intricate ornamentalcastings, many ornamental patterns are offered in this cheaper material. Since the manufacture of gray iron castings requires feweroperations than heat-treated malleable iron, and since they are not fin-ished with the care of Julius Blum ornamental castings, they can besold for less. However, breakage during shipping, fabrication, installa-tion and everyday use often eradicates savings due to the initial lowercost. In the long run, its permanence and the quality of the final prod-uct make malleable iron more desirable. When panels are assembledinto screens spanning more than three panels’ width or height, it isimportant to provide adequate intermediate supports.

Aluminum items are cast from Almag 35. Anodizing of aluminumpanels is not recommended as the material will not anodize consistentlyand does not match the color of anodized extruded aluminum.

All items are carried in stock in substantial quantities and are normally available for prompt shipment.

ORNAMENTALRAILING PANELSJulius Blum & Co.,Inc.’s malleable ironrailing panels arealso used to providearchitectural detailson both stairs andstraight runs. Someof the panels have been slightly redesignedto meet current code requirements.

CARLSTADT® RAILING SYSTEMS

THE MOST VERSATILE SYSTEM FOR RAILINGS IN ALUMINUM, BRONZE, NICKEL-SILVER, STAINLESS STEEL AND ACRYLIC/WOOD

The Carlstadt® railing system features a full range of componentsavailable in aluminum, bronze, nickel-silver, and stainless steel tomeet virtually any installation requirement. Posts and handrails maybe combined with a variety of post, wall, and fascia brackets toachieve a wide range of design alternatives while meeting code andother regulatory requirements. The Carlstadt® system uses self-aligning Carlstadt® handrail brackets.

Aluminum railing components are made of alloy 6063, exceptfor cast flanges, corner bends, and floor flanges, which are cast fromAlmag 35. Aluminum extrusions are produced and handled with greatcare for use in architectural applications and are suitable for most of the hard coat anodic processes. Black anodizing may result in

inconsistent matches. Consult your anodizer before specifying.Bronze components are made of extruded architectural bronze

alloy C38500, except for cast cover flanges, corner bends, and termi-nals, which are cast from alloy C86500.

Nickel-Silver components are extruded of alloy C79800.Nickel-Silver is a copper alloy which has the color of stainless steelwith golden highlights.

Stainless Steel components are made of type 302/304 (18-8)stainless steel.

Acrylic/Wood rail is a prefinished composite material whichretains all the beauty of natural hardwood—oak, walnut and ash—andprovides it with a hard, lustrous acrylic surface. This is achieved

through the Permagrain® Radiation Process which impregnates thewood with acrylic plastic and hardens it by irradiation. The resultingcomposite has twice the resistance to indentation and several timesthe resistance to abrasion as the same hardwood finished conven-tionally. Acrylic/Wood handrails are laminated from several strips soas to obtain greater strength and continuous uniform lengths. Postshave an aluminum spine for strength and ease of assembly. Exposedaluminum surfaces of the post and aluminum-spined handrail have aclear anodized finish (AA-M10-C22-A31). Fascia mounting bracketsprovide concealed post fastening.

Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA): The Americans withDisabilities Act adopted by Congress in 1992 required handrails to be

11⁄4" minimum and 11⁄2" maximum. However, the US Architecture andTransportation Barriers Compliance Accessibility Guidelines—July1998 has now clarified the intent of the dimensional requirements to be11⁄4" minimum to a nominal 2" maximum. It is important to note thatSection 4.26.2 Size and Spacing of Grab Bars and Handrails of theADAAG Manual states in part, “Standard IPS pipe designated by 11⁄4"to 11⁄2" is acceptable.”

ADAAG also allows handrails which provide an equivalent grippingsurface. ANSI117.1-98 defines this alternative: equivalent gripping sur-faces are permitted provided they have a perimeter dimension of 4"(100mm) minimum and 61⁄4" (160mm) maximum and provided theirlargest cross-section dimension is 21⁄4" (57mm) maximum.

CARLSTADT® RAILINGThe Carlstadt® railing system provides a flexible range of railingand post components in aluminum, bronze, nickel-silver, stainlesssteel and Acrylic/Wood to meet almost any installation or coderequirement. The Carlstadt® railing system uses Carlstadt® self-aligning handrail brackets.

CARLSTADT® ACRYLIC / WOODCarlstadt® Acrylic/Wood posts and handrails are manufacturedfrom a pre-finished composite material which retains the beauty ofwood and provides a durable and lustrous acrylic surface. Thismaterial resists fading, may be used indoors or out, and may beeasily refinished by sanding and buffing.

ACRYLIC / WOOD INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

JULIUS BLUM & CO., INC. 800 526 6293 www.juliusblum.com FAX 201 438 6003 85

A. CUTTINGBecause of the hardness and density of the Acrylic/Wood material andthe aluminum spine of the 8570 series moulding, metal-working equipmentis best suited to cut Carlstadt® Acrylic/Wood handrail mouldings.

The mouldings can be cut on a saw using a standard metal cuttingband saw blade (10 teeth to the inch, raker set) or a high speed cut-offsaw with an alloy steel or carbide tipped blade. To avoid chipping,apply masking tape or fiberglass reinforced, pressure sensitive tape tothe section to be cut and use a slow to moderate feed. After cutting,use naphtha to remove petroleum based lubricants or metal oxidesfrom the handrail moulding material.

B. SHAPING ENDS AND CORNERSIt is easy to remove sharpness from mitered corners and shape railingends to form attractive, smoothly contoured terminals. For initial roughremoval of material, use a wood rasp or a belt sander with #60 gritpaper. A stationary or portable belt sander-grinder or similar equip-ment works best.

To smooth the work to a polished finish, use sanding belts with successively finer grits in the following sequence: #100, #120, #150,#280. With some experience, it is possible to use #120 and #280 gritsanding belts only. Following final sanding with the #280 grit belt, buffthe moulding with a clean Iamb’s wool pad using an oil base lubricantsuch as Liquid Gold.

C. FORMING MITERS AND SPLICESMiter joints can be used to make vertical and horizontal directionchanges. More often, independent handrails are used on each flightwithout connections for changes in direction. If the mouldings aremounted securely on a metal subrail and joints are accurately cut, nodoweled connections between adjacent moulding sections are required.

If a metal subrail is not used, or if heavy traffic is anticipated, miterjoints and splices must be doweled and glued. The doweling and gluing technique forms strong joints that reveal only a circumferentialhairline. Epoxy structural adhesive is available from Julius Blum & Co.,

Inc. For maximum joint strength, apply epoxy adhesive liberally to allmating surfaces and press the handrail moulding sections firmlytogether. Surfaces must be clean before adhesive is applied. Carefullyremove all excess adhesive immediately. Structural adhesives can beapplied both in the shop and in the field.

For accurate mating of butting pieces, holes for dowels should belocated and drilled with the aid of a doweling jig.

D. ATTACHMENT TO SUPPORTING STRUCTURESCarlstadt® Acrylic/Wood handrail mouldings have exceptional screwholding power. Where fasteners smaller than 1⁄4" are required, use TypeAB sheet metal screws. Drill pilot holes the same size as required foraluminum. For larger fasteners (1⁄4" and up), the handrails can be drilledand tapped for machine screws. Under no circumstances must screwsbe inserted without prior drilling – they will split the material.

Carlstadt® Acrylic/Wood handrail mouldings can be post or wallmounted using Carlstadt® System posts and brackets, or the mould-ings can be adapted to custom designed supporting structures.

Carlstadt® Acrylic/Wood 8570 series mouldings must be attachedby tapping into the aluminum spine. Attachment to the Acrylic/Woodalone could cause the facing to pull away from the spine. Direct attach-ment to the metal spine insures a high strengthstructural connection.

E. PROTECTION AND FINISHINGMouldings are shipped individually wrapped in a paper or plasticsleeve, which should be left in place as long as possible for protection.

F. MAINTENANCENormal maintenance requires only periodic cleaning with an oil-basefurniture polish. Luster can be maintained by using light hand buffingwith a soft cloth or by mechanical buffing with a lamb’s wool pad.

Nicks, scratches or burn marks can be removed by sanding (finish-ing with #280 grit) and the finish restored to the original luster by buffing.

SLEEVE ANCHOR BOLTThe sleeve anchor bolt is an all-steel rust-proofed multi-purposeanchor bolt intended for use in a wide range of masonry materials. The3⁄8" bolt is recommended for use with heavy-duty floor flange 876. Toinstall, drill a 3⁄8" hole in concrete or masonry to 3" depth. Drill holeswhich conform to ANSI standard carbide bit dimension (.390" to .398").Clean out dust in hole after drilling. Insert sleeve bolt in hole, handtighten, then tighten with wrench to a maximum torque of 30 ft. lbs.

HANDRAIL BRACKETS

WALL, BUSHING AND POST BRACKETS

For convenience and ease of reference, all of the handrail bracketswhich appear in various sections of our catalog are brought together inthis section. Included are brackets for wall, post, center rail and verti-cal mounting; for use with moulding or flat bars; for pipe railings; andfor specific applications.

Aluminum: Cast brackets are made of high-strength alloyAlmag 35—suitable for clear anodizing. Extruded and machinedbrackets are of alloy 6063—suitable for anodizing, including most ofthe hard coat anodic processes (black anodizing may result in consis-tent matches; consult your anodizer before specifying). All, except asnoted, are satin finished. Pipe rail brackets are stocked with a clearanodized finish—AA-M32-C22-A31 (204R1)—as well as plain. Alu-minum brackets cover a wide range of applications, including wall andpost mounted brackets, brackets for center rails and brackets for vertical mounting of rails or panels.

Bronze: Cast brackets are made of alloy C86500 for close colormatch with extruded architectural bronze C38500 and red brass

C23000. Extruded and machined brackets are of C38500. All, exceptas noted, are satin finished and lacquered.

Nickel-Silver: Cast brackets closely match extruded nickel-silver handrails. Extruded and machined brackets are of alloy C79800.All, except as noted, are satin finished and lacquered.

Stainless Steel: Brackets are made of 18-8 chrome-nickelalloy, stainless type 304, for high corrosion resistance. All, except asnoted, are satin finished.

Malleable Iron and Stamped Steel: All types are stocked withflat top member for mouldings and with curved top member for piperails. They may be welded or mechanically fastened to the rail. Pipe railbrackets are supplied galvanized as well as plain.

Julius Blum & Co., Inc.’s handrail brackets have been designed tomeet or exceed accepted safety standards and have been laboratorytested. Test results are available upon request.

Fasteners, except as noted, are not included. All items are carriedin stock in substantial quantities and are available for prompt shipment.

CAST, STAMPED, AND EXTRUDED WALL BRACKETSThese wall brackets are more traditional in style and may beused in a multitude of applications. The various styles allow forconcealed fastening or by attachment with a single 3⁄8" mountingbolt through the wall flange center.

CARLSTADT® SELF-ALIGNING WALL BRACKETSThese wall brackets, available in aluminum, bronze, nickel-silver,and stainless steel, are self-aligning. Once the concealed wallattachment is made, the bracket yoke—which attaches to thehandrail—rotates freely until the chosen handrail is properlyaligned. Various styles are available to coordinate with differenthandrail styles and with pipe railings.

VERTICAL MOUNTING BRACKETSThe mounting brackets are useful for mounting handrails verticallyas in an elevator cab or hospital corridor. These brackets are oftenused with wood handrails, vertically mounted. They are also suit-able for mounting handrails on top of a parapet or knee wall.Adapters are available to permit attachment to pipe or round tube.

CARLSTADT® SELF-ALIGNING POST BRACKETSPost brackets, available in aluminum, bronze, nickel-silver, andstainless steel, are post-mounted variations of the Carlstadt®

wall brackets. A solid post is prepared by drilling and tapping toprovide a match to the 1⁄2" stainless stud included as part of thebracket. The stainless stud may be replaced with a post brackethanger bolt for attachment to a wood post. Hollow posts require aclear hole to be drilled with a tapped post cap or anchor pluginserted to accept the stud.

THRESHOLDS AND MOULDINGS

ELEVATOR CAB COMPONENTS AND MISCELLANEOUS MOULDINGS

This section contains details on the Julius Blum & Co. componentswhich are of particular use in the assembly of elevator cabs. Includedare Elevator Door Saddles and Flat Fluted Sections in aluminum,bronze, nickel-silver, stainless steel and handrail mouldings and brack-ets which are suitable for vertical mounting.

Aluminum components are of alloy 6063—extrusions are T52temper while machined brackets are T6 temper. When properly fabri-cated, they are suitable for anodizing, including most of the hard coatanodic processes. Black anodizing may result in inconsistent matches—consult your anodizer before specifying.

Bronze components are of extruded architectural bronze alloy, C38500.

Nickel-Silver saddles, fluted sections and handrail are extrudedfrom copper-nickel-zinc alloy, C79800.

Stainless Steel components are made of Type 302/304 (18-8) stainless steel.

All brackets are satin finished.Acrylic/Wood handrail mouldings—in oak, walnut and ash—are

impregnated with acrylic plastic according to the Permagrain RadiationProcess. This provides a hard surface and permanent finish which hastwice the resistance to indentation and several times the resistance toabrasion as the same hardwood finished conventionally. It is laminatedfrom several strips so as to obtain greater strength and continuous uni-form lengths. For more information, see pages 62-63.

Refer to pages 104 to 122 for our full range of tubing, bars andshapes in aluminum, bronze, nickel-silver, steel and stainless steel.

HANDRAILS AND BRACKETSJulius Blum & Co., Inc. stocks a large variety of handrail mouldingsand brackets for horizontal and vertical mounting in elevator cabs.Matching elbows and end caps are available for most sections.Handrail sections are supplied with a smooth mill finish suitable forarchitectural finishes.

SADDLESElevator and Door Saddles are available in aluminum, bronze,nickel-silver, stainless steel and steel. Flat fluted sections may becombined with single or double speed saddles to extend width.Saddle alloy matches handrail alloy.

MOULDINGSA variety of other architectural mouldings are available. Thesemouldings provide for alternative methods of glass framing or dooredging. Stair nosings in bronze and aluminum are also availablefrom stock. Mouldings are frequently combined in restoration work.

TUBING, BARS AND SHAPESA large selection of tubing, bars, and shapes in aluminum, bronze,steel, nickel-silver and stainless steel are available from stock.Shapes are extruded to high tolerances and have the sharp cor-ners required for architectural work. Angles and tees are used fre-quently in dropped ceilings as well as other areas of elevator cabs.

STOCK SIZES AND ELEMENTS OF SECTIONS

Our extensive stock of tubing, bars and shapes in aluminum, bronze,nickel-silver, steel and stainless steel has been selected especially tomeet the requirements of ornamental and miscellaneous metal work. Allitems are carried in stock in substantial quantities and shipment is usu-ally made promptly upon receipt of order. All tubing, bars and shapesare supplied in stock lengths with a mill finish, except as noted. JuliusBlum & Co., Inc. does not provide cutting or metal finishing services.

Aluminum architectural shapes, bars and tubes are extruded fromalloy 6063-T52, except as noted. These items have a smooth, uniformsurface and, when properly fabricated, are suitable for anodizing—including most of the hard coat anodic processes. Black anodizing mayresult in inconsistent matches. Consult your anodizer before specifying.Aluminum extrusions are packed in bundles of approximately 100 lbs.which are wrapped and paper interleaved at the mill. Ordering in full bun-dles ensures surface quality and speeds shipping from our warehouse.Aluminum Structural shapes are extruded from alloy 6061-T6.

Bronze tubing, bars and shapes are of extruded alloy C38500,architectural bronze. Round pipe is drawn alloy C23000, red brass.When polished, red brass will provide a generally acceptable matchto architectural bronze.

Nickel-Silver shapes are extruded from C79800. Nickel-silver isa copper/nickel alloy and contains no silver. When polished, nickel-silver has the appearance of stainless steel with golden highlights.

Stainless Steel shapes are type 304 (18-8), except as noted.True bars have sharp corners and are not sheared from plate. Stainlesssteel tubing is of ornamental grade with a smooth surface which is sim-ple to polish.

Steelangles and channels are carbon steel C1010, except as noted.Cold rolled channel and angle have a square root and square edge.

All extrusions are produced and handled with great care to assure aproduct well suited for architectural finishing. Items are thoroughly protected for shipment by wrapping and/or crating, with the exceptionof aluminum structural and steel shapes, which are normally shipped instrapped bundles. Elements of sections are shown alongside each itemin this section. This data has been ascertained with care but cannot be guaranteed. For additional engineering information, see pages 123to 130.

Availability of complete structural information enables architects anddesigners to make proper use of Blum’s component systems to pro-vide safe, durable handrail installations. The designer can engineerinstallations to conform to specific building code loading criteria or canestablish design requirements for a given installation on the basis ofanticipated traffic exposure.

The five major considerations for the structural design of handrails are:1. Structural loading criteria as established by governing building

codes or special design requirements.2. Properties of railing materials and allowable stresses for design.3. Elements of sections for railing components.4. Load, stress, and deflection relationships expressed as formulas for

engineering design.5. Proper attachment and sound supporting structure.

CODE REQUIREMENTS AND REGULATIONSStructural requirements for railings usually are expressed in one of twoways, depending on governing codes and regulations. Some of thesespecify an applied loading distributed uniformly along the rail while oth-ers specify loading concentrated on the top rail. The designer shouldconsult governing codes, local ordinances, project specifications, andregulatory authorities to determine requirements for compliance.

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA): Refer to page iii forinformation regarding handrail dimensions mentioned in the ADAAccessibility Guidelines and ANSI 117.1-2004.

ALLOWABLE STRESSES To provide adequate safety factors, the engineering profession assignsto each material an allowable design stress which is usually expressedas a specific fraction of minimum yield, or sometimes as a smaller frac-tion of minimum ultimate strength. Allowable stresses vary with thecomposition and temper of the material and also, to some degree, withthe kind of shape and the direction of stress.

Yield strength is the point of stress (in pounds per square inch) atwhich material fails to return to its original position after the stress hasbeen removed and takes a permanent set. Minimum yield is defined asthe test value exceeded by 99% of a large number of specimens. Fornon-ferrous metals, the yield point is arbitrarily defined as the point ofstress at which permanent set is a specific fraction of 1% of the lengthof the test piece (0.2% offset as shown below or 0.5% elongation).Ultimate strength is considerably higher (see graph).

BENDING MOMENTS AND STRESSESDetermination of bending moments and stress in structural railingmembers follows conventional engineering design procedures. Theresisting moment—calculated from the Section Modulus (S, whichequals I/C) and Allowable Design Stress (fs)—must equal the AppliedBending Moment (M).

This translates into railing formulas as described below.RAILS: Connections between posts and rails are assumed to be freeto pivot. Distribution of loads through multiple spans decreases maxi-mum bending moment in horizontal members. The effect of differentnumbers of spans may be taken into account by varying the BendingMoment Constant (K). Calculation of Unit Stress (f) and Length ofSpan (L) are accomplished by using the following formulas:

1. For uniform vertical or horizontal loads (w):

2. For concentrated loads (F) applied at mid span:

Note: Values of K are defined based on the maximum bending moment developedunder various numbers of spans.

POSTS: Posts act as vertical cantilever beams in resisting horizontalthrust applied at the top rail. Bending moment produced by horizontalthrust normally controls design and post spacing may be calculatedusing the following equations.1. For uniform horizontal loading (w):

2. For concentrated horizontal loading (Fh):When concentrated loading is specified, the horizontal load on the toprail is distributed among several posts adjacent to the point of loading.The load distribution is a function of the relative stiffness of post andtop rail and of the number of spans in the railing. For a straight run ofrailing it may be calculated with the aid of the graph on page 130. Thiscalculation will show what proportion (Pf) of the total load any one postmay have to sustain. To the extent that it is less than 100%, it will jus-tify the use of lighter and more economical construction. The followingequation applies:

INTERNALLY REINFORCED POSTSThe load-carrying capacity of a post with reinforcing insert is limited bythe allowable fibre stress at one of three points.1. The post at the top of the insert, above which it is not reinforced.2. The insert at its base, at the highest point of its attachment to the supporting structure.3. The post at the same point of attachment.The lowest of these three loading limits controls design for the com-bined post and reinforcing insert.

1. Post at top of insert:

At the point of contact between the railing post and the reinforcinginsert, the deflection of each is assumed to be the same but the resist-ing force of each is a function of its Moment of Inertia (I) and Modulus of Elasticity (E). The resultant combined Reaction Factor(Fr) at the top of the insert is determined as follows:

Er and Ir refer to the reinforcing insertEp and Ip refer to the post

The loading limits for points 2 and 3 are then determined as follows:

2. Insert at base:

Fibre stress in insert:

COMBINED HANDRAIL SECTIONSWhen two sections of the same metal are combined by being fastenedtogether to form a handrail (e.g. a steel moulding mounted on a steelchannel), the sections develop the same deflection under load but actindependently about their respective neutral axes.

Ia and lb are the moments of inertia of the two sections. Since theSection Modulus (S) equals I ⁄C, the combined value for S of the twosections would be:

In the railing formulas, substitute the above equation for the valueof S whenever combined sections of the same material are used.

COMBINED SECTIONS OF DISSIMILAR MATERIALSTo compute the loading of combined sections of dissimilar materials(e.g. a bronze handrail mounted on a steel channel) calculations involvethe determination of the relative portion of the load carried by eachsection. The load distribution is a function of the relative stiffness of thetwo sections, which is determined by the Moments of Inertia (I) andtheir Moduli of Elasticity (E). The distribution of the total load betweentwo sections is determined as follows:

Individual calculation to determine the fibre stress for each mater-ial, using the load portion of each section, will then determine whichsection controls design; namely, the section giving the lesser result(see example 6 on page 128).

DEFLECTION CONSIDERATIONSExcessive deflection of a railing under load, even though it meetsstrength requirements, will give the user a feeling of insecurity and maycause tripping or stumbling.

Lateral deflection of posts or vertical deflection of horizontal railsunder load are computed as follows—these formulas must beused with caution:

For posts without reinforcing insert:

For posts with reinforcing insert of similar or dissimilar material:

Where Ep and Ip apply to postEr and Ir apply to reinforcing insert

For rails (concentrated load, F):

where K = 48 for simple span66 for two or more spans, load on end span87 for three or more spans, load on intermediate span

For rails (uniform load, w):

There are few, if any, regulations or code requirements limiting deflec-tion in a railing but ASTM has put forth the following criteria regardingMaximum Allowable Deflection (∆max) in their specification E985.

For horizontal load at midspan:

For horizontal load at top of post:

For vertical load at midspan:

In many instances, the anchorage of the railing to the floor, tread or fascia is subject to a degree of rotation which will add an indeterminateamount to the deflection on the post and rail. Anchorage and sup-porting structure must be as secure and rigid as possible.

These sample problems demonstrate how engineering data providedby Julius Blum & Co. Inc. can be used to obtain solutions to practi-cal handrail design problems. Problems are solved by equating themaximum bending moment resulting from applied loading to theresisting moment determined from geometrical section properties andallowable stress. This method can be used to obtain solutions for mostinstallation and loading conditions.

CONNECTORAIL® TEST RESULTS1½" Aluminum and Stainless Steel Pipe—Single Span

NOTE ON WELDED PIPE RAILINGSAn important consideration for welded pipe railings is the effect of welding heat on the structural properties of aluminum handrail pipe. For example, extruded pipe of aluminum alloy 6063-T52 has an allow-able design stress of 11,300 psi. After welding, the allowable stress must be reduced to 8,000 psi within 1" of the weld. Since maximum bending moment generally occurs at points of support or attachment, the reduced stress will often control design. This consideration does not apply to non-welded Connectorail®.

LOADING TABLESThe values tabulated in the following page apply to installations fabricated and erected in accordance with Connectorail® speci-fications and using Connectorail® components exclusively. Chart values have been determined by assuming that reinforcing inserts are included with fascia mounted railings and with railings set into the floor, except where no insert is indicated.

For these tables, various post heights have been selected arbitrarily. Values of maximum post spacing for other post heights can be inter-polated easily.

When Connectorail® posts are surface mounted on floors, treads or stringers, using a floor flange, the entire bending moment of the post is transferred to the reinforcing insert and the allowable post loading has to be computed accordingly. The allowable load will be determined by the resisting moment of the reinforcing insert alone or the unreinforced post above the insert (h – h1), whichever is less.

The Stiffness Ratio is then plotted on the graph to obtain a LoadProportion Factor (Pf). When the load proportion factor has been deter-mined, it is multiplied by the total load to determine the load one postmust sustain.

If one or both ends of the railing are free standing, the end loadedcondition must be assumed. If both ends of the run are laterally bracedby a change in direction or attachment to a firm structure, the centerloaded load proportion factor may be used.

NOTE: If end posts differ from intermediate posts in strength, the load dis-tribution pattern becomes indeterminate and end posts should then be designedto carry 100% of the concentrated load. Intermediate posts may then bedesigned to the center loaded condition.

In single span railings, each post must be designed to carry the fullconcentrated load. When posts and rails are of identical material andsection (as in pipe railing), and post spacing varies between 3 and 6feet while post height is between 30 and 42 inches, load distribution isfairly uniform. In this situation, the greatest proportion of a concen-trated load carried by any post can be estimated as follows:

End posts: Intermediate posts:2 span railing Pf = 0.85 2 span railing Pf = 0.65 3 or more spans Pf = 0.82 3 or more spans Pf = 0.60Thus, if a 200 lb concentrated load is specified for a pipe railing,

actual design load to be applied at the top of the end post is .82 × 200lb (164 lb) while design load to be applied to intermediate posts is .60× 200 lb (120 lb). If railing posts are reinforced, the load proportion fac-tor for posts is about 3 percentage points higher.
