86 / ENGINEERING JOURNAL / SECOND QUARTER / 2002
Aguardrail system is a building component located nearthe open side of an elevated surface for the purpose ofminimizing the possibility of a fall from the elevated sur-face by people, equipment, or material (ASCE, 2000). Atypical pedestrian guardrail is illustrated in Figure 1. Whilearchitects usually handle the specification of guardrail sys-tems for most buildings, the structural design of these sys-tems is generally within the area of expertise of the projectstructural engineer. Often, the project architect will onlyprovide general guidance on the configuration of theguardrails, leaving the actual structural design to the fabri-cator. This paper is based on years of experience gained bythe author as a consultant to several structural steel and mis-cellaneous metals fabricators designing guardrail systems.
Traditionally, when steel guardrail systems are specified;they have been designed using the AISC Allowable StressDesign Specification (AISC, 1989). Alternate, less fre-quently-used design specifications which are currentinclude other specifications from the American Institute ofSteel Construction (AISC), the American Iron and SteelInstitute (AISI), and the National Association of Architec-tural Metal Manufacturers (NAAMM). Although the moveto Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) (AISC,1994b) methods has been slow, this paper will compare thedesign of steel pipe guardrail systems using five differentdesign specifications, two of which are LRFD specifica-tions and three of which are ASD specifications. The designmethodology discussed here is equally applicable to bothpipe and hollow structural section (HSS) guardrail systems.
LOADS
Design live loads for guardrail systems are specified by thelocally adopted building code, however, most codes use liveload requirements similar to those specified by ASCE 7-98(ASCE, 2000). Those loads are a uniform load of 50 poundsper linear foot, and a concentrated load of 200 pounds.These loads are to be applied in any direction, but need not
A Technical Note:Comparison of Design Specifications for Design of Pipe and Round HSS Pedestrian Guardrail Systems
be applied simultaneously. For the typical guardrail systemshown in Figure 1, the critical direction of the load is hori-zontal. Most building codes require the guardrail to be 42in. high. A conservative design assumption made by manydesigners is to consider the load to be applied at a height of42.5 in., to take into account the fact that the guardrail maybe inadvertently installed slightly higher than intended.
DISTRIBUTION OF LOADS
The NAAMM (1995) manual provides the recommendeddistribution of loads for railing system posts and rails, forboth uniform and concentrated load cases. Design momentsin horizontal rails are based on considering the rail to beeither a simply supported beam (single span condition) or acontinuous beam. Design moments in the posts are based onconsidering the post to be a simple cantilever, fixed at thebase.
Rails under concentrated load:Single Span Rail: M = PL/4Two or More Spans: M = PL/5
Rails under uniform load:One or Two-Span Rail: M = wL2/8Three or More Spans: M = wL2/9.5
Post under concentrated load:All Conditions: M = DPh
Where D is a factor, which considers the distribution ofthe concentrated load to adjacent posts. NAAMM (1995)

ENGINEERING JOURNAL / SECOND QUARTER / 2002 / 87
This specification is a combined ASD/LRFD specifica-tion. For most limit states, the specification calculates onenominal strength, which is then either reduced by a factor ofsafety, , for ASD designs, or multiplied by a resistancefactor, , for LRFD designs.
The basic nominal strength, Mn, for circular hollow crosssections, is calculated as
Mn = 1.25FySf
For cross sections that are not fully effective, the sectionmodulus to be used is not the full cross section modulus.For most cross sections used in pedestrian guardrail sys-tems, however, the section is fully effective. The elastic sec-tion modulus is multiplied by 1.25 in recognition of therelatively high shape factor, similar to the NAAMM docu-ment. The resistance factor used by AISI for LRFD designsis 0.95.
1993 AISC-LRFD
This specification calculates the nominal strength of com-pact cross sections as
Mn = FyZ
Using the plastic section modulus, Z, recognizes the ulti-mate strength of the cross section. The resistance factorused by AISC for LRFD designs is 0.90.
LRFD LOAD FACTORS
Neither the AISC (1994b), nor the AISI (1996) specifica-tions, nor ASCE 7-98 (ASCE, 2000) specifically addressesthe proper load factor to use for loads on pedestrianguardrails. Currently, the most defensible practice is to usethe same load factor as for other live loads, 1.6. Somedesigners might consider using a lower load factor in con-sideration of the transient nature of the load. This is not considered to be a prudent option, considering the conse-quences of a guardrail failure in an assembly occupancy situation, such as a stadium. Lower load factors may, how-ever, be reasonable in some situations, such as some indus-trial occupancies. At this time, without more substantialguidance, this decision is best left up to the designer-of-record.
DESIGN EXAMPLE
The different designs generated by the five specificationsare best illustrated by a design example.
Determine the maximum post spacing for the followingguardrail system:
Posts and rails to be 1-in. nominal standard weightpipe (1-in. nominal schedule 40 pipe)
provides graphical solutions for many cases, but for mostpractical cases, D may be estimated as:
End Posts:2-span rail 0.853-span or greater 0.82
Intermediate Posts:2-span rail 0.653-span or greater 0.60
Posts under uniform load:End Posts: M = w(L/2)hIntermediate Posts: M = wLh
For additional information on calculation of designmoments in railing systems, and on calculation of load dis-tribution factors, the reader is referred to the NAAMMmanual (NAAMM, 1995).
DESIGN SPECIFICATIONS
Steel pedestrian guardrail systems can be designed usingone of five design specifications. Each specificationapproaches the calculation of the cross-section strength (orresistance) in a slightly different manner.
1989 AISC-ASD
This venerable specification uses an allowable stress of0.66Fy applied to the elastic section modulus, S, of the crosssection. The allowable stress is reduced if the cross sectionis not compact, but this is not the case for most cross sec-tions used for pedestrian guardrail systems.
1995 NAAMM
This design manual, published by the National Associationof Architectural Manufacturers, is applicable to hollow cir-cular cross sections used as guardrails. The manual uses anallowable stress of 0.72Fy applied to the elastic sectionmodulus, S (Sherman, 1985). The allowable stress isreduced if the cross section is not compact, but this is notthe case for most cross sections used for pedestrianguardrail systems. This higher allowable stress (comparedto the 1989 AISC-ASD) is based on the realization that hollow circular cross sections have a relatively high shapefactor (Z/S) of approximately 1.30, compared to approxi-mately 1.12 for wide-flange sections.
1996 AISI-ASD / AISI-LRFD
The American Iron and Steel Institute specification isintended for cold-formed steel structural members, but isalso applicable to any steel cross section whose thicknessfalls within the limits of this specification, which includesmost cross sections used as guardrail members.

DISCUSSION OF RESULTS
The results of this design are fairly typical of most pedes-trian guardrails, that the post spacing is determined by thepost strength, most usually the interior post strength. Occa-sionally, a different cross-section (thinner walled or smallerdiameter) will be used for the rails, since the rail strengthusually does not control the design. There are a number ofvariations on guardrail design, including using internalstiffeners in the posts. These variations are adequately cov-ered in the NAAMM manual (NAAMM, 1995), and thereader is urged to refer to that manual for further informa-tion.
Referring to Table 2, it is apparent that the 1997 AISC-LRFD specification provides for the greatest allowable postspacing of 49.8 in. In this example, the allowable spacinggenerated by the AISC-LRFD specification is 17 percentgreater than a design generated by the AISC-ASD specifi-cation. This is a typical outcome, which allows for moreeconomical designs through using fewer posts. Addition-ally, this should be appealing to most architects, who in the
authors experience tend to want to push post spacing tounrealistically large spacings.
CONCLUSIONS
For most situations, the AISC-LRFD specification providesfor greater post spacings than any of the other design spec-ifications considered, creating designs which are more eco-nomical and perhaps more visually appealing.
