2414.06 ALUMINUM PEDESTRIAN HAND RAILINGS.
Aluminum hand railings shall be constructed of aluminum posts supporting rails of aluminum tubing in accordance with the contract documents and the following:

A. Materials.
Materials shall meet the following requirements:

1. Aluminum Parts.
Section 4190 shall apply.

2. Anchor Bolts, Nuts, and Washers.
Article 4153.06 shall apply unless otherwise shown in the contract documents.
