if your staggering the joints in the ledgers correctly is it right to stagger both handrails as well .
Sounds like someone taking the ledger rules to the extreme. The scaff designer's on here might answer your question better.not only have i been told to stagger them iv had to go back and splice the ones that werent . my arguement was that only the ledgers should be staggered as if you do the handrail with the ledgers and stagger both handrails then remove the handrail the ledger sleeves could end up in the same bay. this has happened to me when cutting out handrails for loading bays and stair towers

Well said Redviking have you got any picturesSince when has a handrail been structral on an independent ? its a guardrail to ''guard'' you from the edge ? Not to do the job of a ledger ?
