Hoisin is often referred to as Chinese barbecue sauce, not because it has a similar flavor, but because it is used for a variety of purposes, similar to American barbecue sauce. Hoisin is also sometimes referred to as Peking sauce because it is used to create the thick glaze on the popular dish, Peking duck.
Balusters, the vertical guards that support the handrail, must be installed close enough that the space between them is no greater than 4 inches. Most city inspectors carry a 4-inch ball with them to test the spacing. Installed balusters should withstand 50 lbs. of pressure exerted over a 1-square-foot area.
If you extend a vertical line up from this sloped line, the top railing must be no less than 34 inches and no more than 38 inches above the line connecting the tips of the stair treads. Calculating the angle of the cut for the railings is very simple.
