Strength Requirements

Top rail/guard/handrail Should withstand 200 pounds of force in any direction at the top.

Infill Should withstand 50 pounds of force spread over a 12 inch × 12 inch area.

Engineer’s perspective Load compliance is about the system as installed rather than individual components. Always install per Viewrail instructions and use the specified fasteners/anchors for the surface you’re attaching the system to.
