1 HSW LU - Prefabricated Ornamental Railing Systems

  • AIA San Diego PO Box 7601 San Diego, CA, 92167 United States (map)

Join AIA San Diego and AGS Stainless Inc. for a virtual program, plus the opportunity to earn 1 HSW LU.

During the era of physical distancing, traditional construction methods were forced to change and contractors had to find new ways to work. One effective method that has prevailed is custom fabrication of off-site materials.

With ornamental railing, one person can complete a job that may have previously required 2-3 highly skilled persons using traditional construction methods.

After taking the course, participants will be able to explain the differences + advantages of architectural railing products built onsite versus those fabricated 100% offsite…

 Learning Objectives:

  • Explain the advantages of a prefabricated custom railing system and an all-stainless steel railing system

  • Compare and contrast the railing system materials used for posts, top rails, and infill

  • Describe common challenges with locally fabricated metal rail systems

  • Evaluate how stainless steel railing systems meet health, safety, and welfare requirements
