13.4 - Perimeter toeboard

It is recommended and typical for the perimeter toeboard to be provided as part of the edge protection system. However, there are instances where it may be necessary for the perimeter toeboard to be provided as an addition to the perimeter edge trim. Where required, the recommended detail utilises a ‘C’ shaped edge trim with the toeboard as a secondary trim fixed to the top of the ‘C’ shaped edge trim. This has limitations due to the access required to fix the edge trim to supporting steelwork, but is easier to remove upon completion.
