The code for railings around a deck typically falls under local building codes, which can vary by location. In the United States, the International Residential Code (IRC) is often referenced, which generally requires guardrails for decks more than 30 inches above grade, with a minimum height of 36 inches for residential decks. It's important to check with your local building authority to ensure compliance with specific regional requirements.
