Guardrail testing
We are using the 2012 IBC. Are you saying the guardrail should resist 400# (200x2)to be considered in compliance with the IBC? If so, it appears the IBC is very unclear on this.- tayloraiape

Guardrail testing
When testing a balcony guardrail for the code required point loading, does the post need to resist a 200# load or does it need to resist 200x1.6= 320#? When performing the load test, the question is whether you add a safety factor to the 200# load? This is an in-place guardrail where we are...- tayloraiape
