Brief facts about balustrades:
A balustrade is an architectural feature commonly used as a protective barrier and decorative element in various structures, including staircases, balconies, terraces, and bridges. Consisting of a series of balusters - small posts that support a railing - balustrades serve both functional and aesthetic purposes in architecture. While primarily providing safety by preventing falls from elevated surfaces, balustrades also contribute significantly to the overall design and character of buildings and structures. The concept of balustrades dates back to the Renaissance period, marking a significant evolution in architectural design. However, their origins can be traced to earlier civilizations, albeit in different forms. Balustrades have been adapted through various architectural eras, each contributing to the diversity of styles and materials seen in their construction.
Bollard - A bollard is a sturdy, short, vertical post. The term originally referred to a post on a ship or quay used principally for mooring boats.
Guard rail - Guard rails, guardrails, railings or protective guarding, in general, are a boundary feature and may be a means to prevent or deter access to dangerous or off-limits areas while allowing light and visibility in a greater way than a fence.
Handrail - A handrail is a rail that is designed to be grasped by the hand so as to provide safety or support. In Britain, handrails are referred to as banisters.
Baluster - A baluster is an upright support, often a vertical moulded shaft, square, or lathe-turned form found in stairways, parapets, and other architectural features. In furniture construction it is known as a spindle.
