What is the standard height for platform guardrails? Please give me some advice! This post was last edited by laiqi on 2009-4-16 15:31]

Those I’ve encountered are 1.1 meters and 1.2 meters in length. Additionally, it also depends on the elevation of the platform; the general principle is that it should be above the center of gravity of a person. In practice, the design specifications in the standard atlas or the design notes must be followed

There must be corresponding standards for the height of the guardrails on equipment operation platforms! The height of the guardrails on our tank operation platforms is generally 1050~1010 mm. Excerpt: 1. Clause 3 of Article 10.10.2 of GB50341 \"Code for Design of Vertical Cylindrical Welded Steel Oil Tanks\": \"The height from the deck to the top of the railing shall not be less than 1050 mm.\" ” 2. Article 9.7.2 of SH3046 \"Design Code for Vertical Cylindrical Welded Steel Storage Tanks in the Petrochemical Industry\": \"The spacing between the columns of the tank top railing shall not exceed 1.5 m, and the height of the railing shall not be less than 1.05 m.\" . . . ” For reference!

Excerpt from GB 4053.3—93: The height of protective railings should be 1050 mm. The height of the protective railings on platforms, walkways, and work areas at a height of less than 20 meters above the ground must be no less than 1000 mm, while on platforms, walkways, and work areas at a height of 20 meters or more above the ground, the height of such railings must be no less than 1200 mm.

I work on the construction of offshore platforms, and basically the height of the railings on all such platforms is 1050 mm.

Different standards are applied, resulting in varying requirements. Sometimes construction is carried out according to the plans, but the client’s inspection requires different safety regulations

Previously, the height here was 1 meter, but now safety requirements are stricter than before; currently, it is set at 1.2 meters.

1200 for public areas, 1050 for residential stair sections, 1100 for the top-level landing

The standard design for chemical plants is 1.2 meters

In the past, when I was doing construction, I used a length of 1.2 meters

Our unit is all built to 1.2 meters.

It is specified in GB 4053

The height of guardrails is generally below 1.5m, around 1.1~1.2m

The standard height for platform guardrails is 1.1 meters.

Between 1.1 and 1.2. But many construction companies have their own standards. We also need to consider the opinions of the construction party

Regarding the height of guardrails, corresponding regulations exist in various standards. As a design institute, there must be unified regulations for a project. We have encountered a situation where, for the same project’s guardrails, one unit used national standards while another unit used institutional standards.
