Angled Railings.

Hey I need help with creating an angled railing.

between a building being modelled and and the site, is a pedestrian bridge and there is some slope going from the buiding , down to the site grade.

I've created the ramp out of massing ( a structural framing component)as i wanted it to have the profile that has been detailed for me.

I know that if i do a ramp or a sloped floor that it would be easier to have the railing added and running paralel, but is there a way to get the railing to host to a reference plane ? I'm having difficulties getting things to work the way i want them to be.

can i host my railing to a sloped reference place or am i limited to using a ramp or sloped floor to do this ?

Thanks

I think railings can only be hosted by floors or ramps.
You could create a thin ramp or floor in the same plane as your massing ramp, then host the railing from that.

Thats exact Mark.

yeah this is what i've ended up doing and it works well . the way i've done it was by making the massing in the shape and position and angle of the member i was modelling .
then i did floor by face . and then the railing attached to that.
