The tests were conducted on three separate samples in accordance with instructions from Vista Railing Systems Inc. DESCRIPTION Reviewed by: Sheldon Warman, P.Eng. The aluminum picket samples were installed within a complete aluminum guardrail assembly. Manager The pickets measured 5/8" x 5/8" x 0.051" thick and were spaced 4-1/2" apart c/c. Each Physical Testing and Certification picket is welded to both the top and bottom rails on one side each. Every 5th picket is welded on both sides' top and bottom. Please refer to the drawing in the appendix of this report. DD/ah The sample assembly was placed onto a horizontal support assembly and a hydraulic ram (complete with a calibrated 1000 lb. Artech load -cell S/N: 199766) was used to apply the load through a 12" x 12" x 1" thick plywood platten. The load was steadily increased until failure occurred at which point the load was recorded.

As per Figure 3 2.6 WEAKNESS IN WELDED ALUMINUM A review of the mechanical properties of aluminum alloys and elements In Table 1 indicates that tensile strength is significently, reduced in aluminum when it is welded. This has a significant impact on the strength capacity of aluminum guardrail components, connections and systems. At the bottom connection of posts to base plates, the connection and Post Capacity is substantially less in welded configurations compared to those using Vista Pro Railings mechanical fastening. Tests conducted by Intertak Testing Services Na LtdJ Warnock Hershey indicate that 38.1 mm (1 '/,") posts with welded base plates fail at bads an average of 35 % lower than identical posts with Vista Pro Ratings mechanical base plate connections. Tests conducted by Intertek Testing Services NA Ltd./Wamock Hershey of a 2 Y.." aluminium post of top deck mount configuration (an actual competitor of Vista Pro Railings) that uses a welded base plate failed at bads an average of 30% lower than the Vista Pro Railings T post. A copy of the report can be provided upon request. For these reasons, welded post Rase connections are generally not recommended. 2.7 DESIGN PROCEDURES 2.7.1 Top Rail Design T rail desig n normal) involves using Top sm convention engineering 9 Y ale Ineerin design 9 g g es gn procedures in determining and comparing section resistingmoment capacities to resultant bending n moments from applied loads. Connections actions between posts and rails are assumed to provide no flexural restraint. The bending moments in top rails are affected by the number and length of spans between posts in a straight run. Computer analysis of guardrail systems most accurately determines bending moments in top rails. The top rail moment Capacity Calculated using the section modulus (S) and material yield strength (Fy) (or aftemalively from analysis of test results) must exceed the resultant bending moment from the applied bads.

Bending moments caused by horizontal loads normally control allowable post spacing and design. The first step in post design is determining the actual horizontal bad that each post would be expected to cany. Horizontal load distribution from the top rail to each post is affected by a number of factors including the relative stiffness of the post and top rail, the length of each straight run, the number of spans In the railing, and the end support conditions. Computer modelling and analysis based on test results of guardrail systems most accurately assimilates top rail bad distribution to each of the supporting posts and end conditions. The post moment capacity is calculated using the section modulus (S) and material yield strength (Fy). This must exceed the resultant bending moment from the applied bads or the post spacing Is reduced to Create an acceptable condition. 3.0 DESIGN TABLES The design procedures de scribed in the i 9 Proce previous section have been carried out for a wide ra nge n e of possible guar drail 9 Po 9 configurations. The results are summarized in the tables which follow. By knowing the overall dimensions and layout of the guardrail system under desig n, n an acceptable Conf iguration uretbn can be se g P selected using the tables. 9 g s For each configuration, the maximum allowable post spacing indicated for the longest straight run shown Is also the maximum allowable post spacing for straight runs exceeding in length what is shown. The design tables are based u the loading 9 din coterie set out i Pon t o the 2018 International Building 9 aCade section 16 07han Handrails and guards. The actual load conditions for the guardrail system under design must be identical to a less than those used in the development of the tables. The tables should not be used for other applications where different loading conditions and configurations exist. 3.1 WIND LOADING For glass infill guardrail systems, the structural strength requirements imposed by design wind loading may exceed those imposed by specified guardrail design loads. Guardrail design loads (as specified In the 2018 International Building Code) of 20 p8 and 50 plf top rail bad are the governing criteria for 42" (1067 mm) high guardrail system designs when compared to uniform lateral specific wind pressures of not greater than 12.7 psi and 28.7 Pat respectively. The respective allowable guardrail configurations provided in figures 4 are all capable of withstanding this uniform lateral specific wind pressures. The procedure for determining allowable wind pressures for solid freestanding walls is provided using Chapters 1, 2, 26 and 29 of ASCE 7 Standard. Using the provisions, a 12.13 psf (0.58 kPa) allowable wind pressure is given fo the following conditions: • Basic Wind Speed for Occupancy Category II Buildings and Other Structures - nominal design 3-second gust Wind speed of 115 miles per hour at 33 feet (10m) above ground for Exposure C category, Figure 26.5 - 1A • Exposure B Category, 9 Cate o Section 26.7 • Wind directions Ity factor, Kd 0.85 Section 26.6 • Topographic factor 1.0 Section , KzL 28.8 • Gust Effect Factor, cto , G, 0.85, Section 26.9 • Velocity pressure exposure coefficient Kz, 0.57, Table 29.2 - 1 • Force coefficient, Cf, solid freestanding walls, 1.45, Figure 29.4 -1 Many residenfial guardrail conditions fit within these criteria.

This method Is somewhat conservative and limiting since it does not give consideration to the varying interactions of the elements in determining the bad carrying capacity of the guardrail system. Analysis and testing procedures are applied to achieve information for a more efficient design. Alternatively, aluminum guardrail element and system load capacities can be determined following the applicable Provisions of the 2018 International Building Code in Chapter 17 Special Inspections and Tests. Vista Pro Railings has conducted an extensive testing program using the services of Intertek Testing Services Na Ltd./Wamock Hershey, some of the results of which are provided in Table 3. Reports of the tests are available upon request. Since test results generally reflect more accurately the actual load carrying capacity of elements and systems, Vista Pro Railings recommends the use of test results, where possible, in determining acceptable guardrail designs. 2.4 LOAD DISTRIBUTION Proper determination of load distribution is a necessary step in the efficient design of guardrail systems. Load distribution is affected by numerous factors, including but not limited to, the stiffness of the top rail relative to the stiffness of the posts, the continuity of the top rail, the length of each straight segment, the total number of spans in a segment, the type of panel infill and the end support conditions. Accurately determining the load distribution characteristics of a guardrail system requires a sophisticated analysis approach. Vista Pro Railings has develo ed s i octal zed computer modelling P P pythere used to determine the load distribution for its various systems and has pertormed extensive testing to verify the results. Analysis and design of unique configurations requires specialized engineering which Dan be provided by Vista Pro Railings. Use of this information in combination with test results is essential for the efficient design of safe guardrail systems. 2.5 ANCHORAGE Proper anchorage of guardrail posts and rails to a sound and structurally adequate supporting structure is essential for a guardrail system. These elements must be as secure and rigid as possible. A structurally adequate supporting structure is as important as the anchorage elements themselves. One without the other compromises the load carrying capacity and performance of the guardrail system. Building designers and general contractors must be made aware of their responsibility to provide for proper support conditions since this is beyond the normal scope and control of the guardrail system designer and installer. The anchorage and supporting structure for each post must be designed to cony the applied loads and their associated overturning moments at the post base. These loads comprise of shear, tension and compression forces which must be resisted. Figure 3Indicates some common and approved post base connections. The anchorage and supporting structure of each top (and bottom) rail to base building components (wall, column, etc) connection must be designed to carry the applied loads transferred from the top and bottom rail. The connection is assumed to provide pivot support With no flexural resistance. Shear loads and, depending upon the system configuration, pullout loads must be resisted. Figure 3 indicates some common and approved top and bottom rail to base building component connections VISTA PRO RAILINGS-81' EDITION-2020 Vista Pro Railings Design Guide - American ...120 For wind pressure greater than 12.7 Pat, adjust the allowable post spacing based on a 20 pt top rail load using the following formula: modified allowable 12.7 post = post x wind pressure spacing spacing in psf For wind pressure greater than 28.7 psf, adjust the allowable post spacing based on a 50 pff top rail load using the following formula: modified allowable 28.7 post = post x wind pressure spacing spacing in psf 3.2 GUARDRAIL HEIGHT Ili VARIATIONS O S The most common guardrail system height is 42' (1D67 ram).

Aluminum guardrail assemblies are commonly comprised of straight sections of top rail elevated and supported above a floor by uniformly spaced posts. The posts are anchored to the floor system by means of anchor screws or bolts. A bottom channel runs between support posts just above the floor system. The vertical space between the poses, the bottom channel and top rail is infilled with either glass panels or aluminum pickets. Figure 1 below illustrates the main elements of a glass panel and aluminum picket guardrail system. /- top rail -\ un fcnrnn spaced posts -1/4' tempered / / glass i 11 panel aluminum Picket bottom channel anchor screws or bolts - floor level -- Glass Panel Aluminum Picket Guardrail System Guardrail System FIGURE 1: MAIN ELEMENTS OF GUARDRAIL SYSTEMS 2.0 GENERAL DESIGN This manual has been compiled to provide relevant structural information which will enable designers, installers, architects, and engineers to select safe and code -conforming guardrail designs using Vista Pro Railing Systems products. The major considerations for the structural design of guardrails are: 1. t S ructural design g coterie as established by governing building codes, bodies and authorities or by specific and unique established project design requirements, 2. Mechanical properties of material used in the manufacture of guardrail elements. 3. Physical properties of guardrail elements, 4. Load capacities of guardrail elements and component systems, 5. Load distribution characteristics of various guardrail elements and systems, and 6. Proper anchorage of support elements to surrounding supporting structures.

However, for guardrail systems with glass panel infill, consideration must be given to the size of the glass panels. Although testing has shown that glass panels supported by the top and bottom rails meet code requirements regardless of length of ran, for practical purposes from the point of view of the Installer, glass panel inflls should be limited to not greater than 5'-6" (1676 mm) In length. 3.5 FASCIA MOUNTED POSTS Guardrail systems using fascia or side mounted posts instead of top mounted posts are becoming more Widely used.

Usually a unrfortnly, distributed load and/or a concentrated load applied to the top rail is specified. The loading requirements of the 2018 International Building Code for guardrails are provided in section 1607.8.1 Handrails and guards as shown below: 1607.8.1 Handrails and guards. Handrail and guards shall be designed to resist a linear bad of 50 pounds per lineal foot (plf) (0.73 kill in accordance with Section 4.5.1,1 of ASCE 7. Glass handrail assemblies and guards shall comply With Section 2407. Exceptions: 1. For one- and two-family dwellings, only the single concentrated load required by Section 1607.8.1.1 shall be applied. 2. In Group 1-3, ll and S occupancies, for areas that are not accessible to the general public and that have an occupant load no greater than 50, the minimum load shall be 20 pounds per foot (0.29 kill 1607.8.1.1 Concentrated bad. Handrail and guards shall be designed to resist a concentrated load of 200 pounds (0.89 ll in accordance with Section 4.5.1,I of ASCE 7. 1607.8.1.2 Intermediate Rails. Intermediate rails (all those except the handrail), balusters and panel fillers shall be designed to resist a concentrated load of 50 pounds (0.22 IN) in accordance with Section 4.5.1.1 of ASCE 7. 2,1.2 Factors Of Safety Factors of safety are generally related to a mode of failure. Ductile failure, such as stable (no buckling) yielding of a metal element, is usually assigned a lower factor of safety than is brittle failure, such as screw fracture or anchor bog pullout. A higher or lower factor of safety may be appropriate depending upon the type of application and other considerations made by the certifying professional. For instance, a higher factor of safety may be more appropriate for glass infill panels since their failure is of a brittle nature. The guardrail configurations/design tables provided at the end of this manual have been developed using the factors of safety as set out in the 2018 International Building Code, ASCE 7 Standard, and the Aluminum Association Aluminum Design Manual.
