properties
Construction The first category of properties in a top rail defines the basic construction
of the rail. Here you will select a profile and specify other behavior such as default join
condition, transitions, and hand clearance.
Terminations Another top rail option is defining a termination. This is a family
component that can be used at the end of a rail or rail extension. There is only one
termination family loaded in the default project template, but you can create your own
family using the Railing Termination.rft or Metric Railing Termination.rft
family template. Figure 15.11 shows an example of a termination.
