  2. Cable railing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cable_railing

    On the other hand, the commercial International Building Code requires the railing to be at a minimum of 42-inch height. Posts can be floor-mounted or fascia/side-mounted, but the height of the railing is measured from the floor to the top of the railing. Fascia mounted cable-railings at 42-inch height

  3. Deck railing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deck_railing

    Stainless-steel cable and fasteners are strong and don’t obscure the view. Contemporary frame systems use plastic-coated steel cables. [6] Glass balusters and glass panels are often used at contemporary architectural projects where unobstructed view is important. [7] All-glass railing without a top rail can be used to maximize the effect. [8]

  4. List of steepest gradients on adhesion railways - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_steepest_gradients...

    These include simple rail adhesion, rack railways and cable inclines (including rail mounted water tanks to carry barges). To help with braking on the descent, a non-load-bearing "brake rail" located between the running rails can be used, similar to the rail used in the Fell system, e.g. by the Snaefell Mountain Railway on the Isle of Man.

  5. Track spacing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Track_spacing

    Measurement of track spacing from the rail head to rail head. By definition, the track spacing is given from centre to centre of a rail track. For an actual construction the distance is measured from the inside of a rail head to the matching one of the other track. As far as both tracks have the same gauge this is the same distance.

  6. List of longest cable-stayed bridge spans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_longest_cable...

    The definition of cable-stayed bridge deck length used here is: A continuous part of the bridge deck that is supported only by stay-cables and pylons, or are free spans. This means that columns supporting the side span as for example found in Pont de Normandie , excludes most of the side span decks from the cable-stayed deck length.

  7. Track gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Track_gauge

    The most common use of the term "track gauge" refers to the transverse distance between the inside surfaces of the two load-bearing rails of a railway track, usually measured at 12.7 millimetres (0.50 inches) to 15.9 millimetres (0.63 inches) below the top of the rail head in order to clear worn corners and allow for rail heads having sloping ...

  8. Stairs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stairs

    Stairs are not suitable for wheelchairs and other vehicles. A stairlift is a mechanical device for lifting wheelchairs up and down stairs. For sufficiently wide stairs, a rail is mounted to the treads of the stairs, or attached to the wall. A chair is attached to the rail and the person on the chair is lifted as the chair moves along the rail.

  9. Cable railway - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cable_railway

    A cable railway is a railway that uses a cable, rope or chain to haul trains. It is a specific type of cable transportation . The most common use for a cable railway is to move vehicles on a steeply graded line that is too steep for conventional locomotives to operate on – this form of cable railway is often called an incline or inclined ...
