hi everybody


I ve got sloped green roof - nicely going up and down a couple of meters. on the edges of it I need to place a railing.

Question: how could I make my railing following exactly the slope of my roof ?

I tried the good old railings - didn't work.

I tried a curtain wall -already better I could attach my bottom part to the roof. how handling the upper part ?

Any tips would be welcome ...

THanks

Walter

You can add a ref. plane that is the slope of your roof and host to that. Or create the railing with adaptive components.

thanks for the idea, in the end i used a curtain wall, attached it to the roof, copied the roof (and its mass base) 1 m above and attached the top to it. For the moment it works ... reference plans would have been tricky given the shape of the roof

I don't think you can host a railing on a reference plane.
