Rail Spacing

The option to Add, Remove or Modify the elevations of the existing Rails only becomes active when the Template option at the top of the form is set to Default, the Default representation can be used during the conceptual stages of the project before the fabrication details for the Handrailing is known, or simply for visualization purposes. If the default representation is used you can at any time change the representation back to the Detail representation as per the Default, project or User standards defined in the Application Data World.

The appropriate spacings for Rails rail should be highlighted in the grid object and the 'Use', option saves this as the current rail spacing selection, the spacing attribute or dimensions shown in the form grid object is referenced from the zero datum.

The Default representation of Handrail is still evaluated against the Standard or engineering criteria defined in the Standard and any user modifications are automatically validated by the rule checking engine and appropriate feedback is returned to you. Inputting data that exceeds the criteria will result in an error message.
