Brian M. McCaffrey, PE
This 2-hour course will introduce you to the principles of designing or evaluating guardrail systems in commercial / industrial applications for fall protection. The design of a simple guardrail system has become more complicated as there is no single guardrail design that will work for all situations. There are different functional Code requirements depending upon the local jurisdiction and the design engineer must interpret the latest version of these regulations and Codes and apply them to specific applications.
This course includes a multiple-choice quiz at the end, which is designed to enhance the understanding of the course materials.
