RAILFIX 3.0

RAILFIX by fischerwerke is a specialized engineering application for designing and verifying the anchorage of railings and balustrades. Built for structural engineers, metal fabricators, and installers, it streamlines the selection and calculation of fischer fastening solutions to meet project requirements and relevant regional standards and approvals. RAILFIX guides users from concept to documentation, helping ensure safe, efficient, and cost-conscious designs.

Key capabilities:

• Configures railing layouts, post spacing, base plates, and typical load cases for guardrails and handrails.
• Suggests suitable fischer anchors and fasteners based on substrate, edge distances, spacing, and embedment depth.
• Checks load capacities in tension, shear, and combined action, including critical edge and spacing effects.
• Supports common base materials (such as concrete and, where applicable, masonry) with guidance aligned to technical approvals.
• Provides clear calculation notes, material lists, and submittal-ready reports for project documentation.
• Offers intuitive workflows and visual schematics to reduce iteration time and design errors.

RAILFIX is commonly offered as part of the fischer FiXperience suite, integrating product data and approvals to help deliver reliable, compliant anchoring solutions for railing applications.
