What is the maximum height without guardrails for elevated structures designed for ages 5-12?

  1. 30"

  2. 48"

  3. 20"

  4. 29"

The correct answer is: 30"

The maximum height for elevated structures designed for ages 5-12 without guardrails is 30 inches. This is determined by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) to ensure the safety of children playing on these structures. Options B, C, and D do not align with this safety regulation and would be considered incorrect choices. Option B is too high and would require guardrails to be installed. Option C is too low and would not provide enough height for children to play on. Option D is only an inch away from the recommended height, but it is still not in alignment with the CPSC regulations.
