5.7. TWO-LINE RAIL TURN BACK CLOSURE
There are four special closures available for filling the space between two ramps in a turn
back configuration: Two-Line Rail for a 5’ platform side; Picketed Guard for a 5’ platform side;
Two-Line Rail for a 6’ platform side; Picketed Guard for a 6’ platform side. Turn back closures
for a 7’ platform side are uncommon and are ordered as a custom closure.
5.7.1. Install Corner Pocket Covers in the two platform corner pockets between the ramps
which do not have 2” x 2” angle posts first. Make sure the 1-1/2” support legs and
platform connector stub tubes are flush or slightly below the tops of the platform
corner pockets, then drop the 2” x 2” angles on the underside of the Corner Pocket
Covers into the pockets where the post would normally be installed.
5.7.2. Tighten the set screws in the corner pocket to hold the covers in place (FIG. 5.20).
Refer to
SECTION
4.6 and FIG. 4.11 for additional details on set screw locations.
Corner Pocket Covers are “left” and “right” hand pairs, but can be installed in
either platform corner pocket, provided they extend onto the platform side rail.
