The structural integrity of the railing depends heavily on the posts that support the rail structure. These posts should be no farther apart than six feet on the flat deck and no farther apart than 5 1/2 feet on stairs. Your local building department might require closer post spacing for added rail strength.
An intersection is an at-grade junction where two or more roads meet or cross. Intersections may be classified by number of road segments, traffic controls, and/or lane design. This article primarily reflects practice in jurisdictions where vehicles are driven on the right.
The intersection symbol ( ) denotes the intersection of two set s. It is commonly used in mathematics and engineering. Given two sets A and B, the intersection of A and B, written A B, is the set C of all elements that are in both A and B. The diagram below illustrates set intersection. Sets A and B are denoted as circles (including their interiors). The set A B is represented by the hatched region.
