Post and panel assembly and method, e.g. for glazed parapet

摘要

A barrier comprises an array of glass panels supported between fixed posts; each panel is retained in a channel defmed by opposed walls of first and second shroud portions which are assembled together in snap-fit relation around the posts. The posts may be used to support a safety barrier during building construction before assembling the shrouds and panels to provide a permanent parapet or the like. The shroud portions may be separated by flexibly deforming one of the portions using a special tool.
