7' chain link fence instead of handrail for a platfrom. will this detail work?
(OP)
we will be using a 7' chain link fence with barbwire instead of handrail around a steel platform.
will 1/2 clip angle and 3 bolts detail work on a 7' chain link fence.
I don't even know the approx. weight of this chain link fence.
will this get significant torsion on the beam due to wind load on fence?
maybe welding the post on the top of the beam instead, but could be mess with grating?

our standard only use 12"dia x3' drilled pier so I'm guessing the forces are minimal.

If you're estimating the weight of the fence 3 psf is plenty.

If it is expected to act as a guardrail, I would also consider using guard rail loads at 42" AFF
