Engineering of Custom Railings Miami-Dade
Miami-Dade County is known for its skyscrapers, high end homes and extensive commercial buildings where railings are important architectural elements for balconies, stairs, ramps, and many other building locations that require human protection along the edges. While Custom railings have the same Florida building code structural requirements as those of the standard railings, the analysis of the former is often more complex hence requires particularly competent engineering skills. At Universal Engineering, we specialize in designing and engineering all types of railings that perfectly balance safety, functionality, and aesthetic appeal. We provide all engineering calculations and/or comparative analysis and certifications for site specific railings to meet Florida Building Code.
Engineering of Custom Railings Miami-Dade
Structural Integrity
A railing is a delicate structure and represents potentially the weakest element of a building hence it requires a design emphasis to assure structural integrity hence overall building safety. Railing design complies with Florida Building Code and International Codes. Our engineering team uses the state of the art engineering tools (and sometimes manual engineering calculations) to ensure that your custom railings are designed for maximum safety and durability at minimum material costs.
Florida Building Code Requirements
In addition to 3 second gust 180 mph wind force, Florida Building Code prescribes additional design load requirements including uniform, concentrated, statistic and dynamic load requirements. Such load criteria, along with FBC prescribed picket minimum heights and spacings, are rigorously incorporated in our design process. At Universal Engineering, our team is well versed in the structural part of the code and constantly update their knowledge with code updates by investing in continuing education and participating in code seminars
Permit Process technical support
Another key element in the success of our certification work is to understand the needs and requirements of the building departments (The permit issuing authorities). Our team has worked closely with all building departments in Miami Dade counties, and we understand the specific requirements for individual departments which assures a smooth and a timely approval for our submitted products.
