The document discusses the design of a railing system with glass infill for an escalator area based on Eurocode standards. It performs structural checks on the various components including the vertical posts, glass infill, and horizontal members.

The basis of design considers three loading cases - uniform distributed line load, uniform distributed area load, and a point load applied to the infill. The critical load case with the maximum bending moment is identified.

Checks performed on the vertical main posts include moment capacity, shear capacity, and deflection checks. The section meets the requirements for all checks under the critical load case.
