Railings
You can add railings as free-standing components to levels, or attach them to hosts (such as floors, ramps,
or stairs).
When you sketch a railing, rails and balusters are automatically placed on the railing at evenly spaced
intervals. For information on editing baluster and post placement, see
Controlling Placement of Balusters
and Posts on page 749.
The shape of rails and balusters are determined by profile families loaded in the project. See Railing Properties
on page 754.
