What is the minimum height of the upper rail for guardrails on elevated structures for ages 5-12?

  1. 38"

  2. 29"

  3. 48"

  4. 23"

The correct answer is: 38"

Guardrails are safety barriers that are typically placed on elevated structures to prevent falls or accidents. The minimum height for the upper rail of guardrails for ages 5-12 is 38 inches, according to industry standards and safety regulations. Option B, 29 inches, may not be tall enough to prevent a child from falling over the rail. Option C, 48 inches, may be too high for younger children to reach, making it difficult for them to use the structure safely. Option D, 23 inches, is also too low and does not provide adequate protection for children. Therefore, option A, with a minimum height of 38 inches, is the best choice for ensuring the safety of children on elevated structures.
