Waist wall panel 11 for supporting the load from the handrail and handrail member 1
Wood screws 12 and 1 for fixing 0 and the waist wall panel 11
It is composed of 3 etc.

The handrail member 10 is a long member made of wood and having a substantially rectangular cross section in which a grip portion 10a having an arcuate cross section is formed so as to project to the front side. Then, it is attached via a wood screw 12 to the outer surface of the plaster board B at a position slightly higher than the position of the waist of the user walking on the floor surface F of the building. The wood screw 12 penetrates the plasterboard B from the front surface 10b below the grip portion 10a of the handrail member 10 and is screwed into the pillar A1 or the stud A2 of the building.

As shown in FIG. 1, the waist wall panel 11 is a supporting flat plate having a predetermined width in the left-right direction and having a predetermined thickness, and has a constant strength of MDF (wood fiber board) and cement. It is composed of a plate or a steel plate. As shown in FIG. 2, the waist wall panel 11 has its lower end abutted on the floor surface F of the building and supported on this floor surface F, and its upper end through the notch 11b, Handrail member 10
