Looking over deck plans/specs with homeowner before pulling a permit. He wanted to put these guards from Home Depot around the deck. Click the link and then click on specifications....look at the structural/ornamental category.

This rail is ornamental only! Home Depot has another rail by the same manufacturer that costs $15 more per section and is labelled structural. I've been on the manufacturers website, barretteoutdoorliving.com, and it only contains install instructions. For code reports, you have to call the 800 number. I did and am awaiting their email.
