Wooden Railing — Detailed Guide
The first railing you can unlock
This railing is called Wood Railing in ARK: Survival Ascended and 
Wooden Railing in ARK: Survival Evolved, and the ARK Wiki names it the first railing that can be unlocked. The ASE description gives its purpose: "A sturdy wooden railing that acts as a simple barrier to prevent people from falling." The ASA text simply calls it a wooden railing.
Crafting and placing it
The engram unlocks at level 14 for 3 engram points. A railing takes 2 seconds to craft in the inventory, gives 0.924 XP and needs 20 
Wood (or 
Fungal Wood), 5 
Thatch and 3 
Fiber. Any Foundation or Fence Foundation can hold it, and stacking railings on one another gives taller barriers or even cages.
What cannot break it
As a wooden structure it is safe from bare hands, stone weapons and ranged attacks that do not explode. The wiki also names a long list of aggressive creatures that cannot damage it, for example the 
Raptor, 
Direwolf, 
Sabertooth, 
Terror Bird, 
Titanoboa, 
Kaprosuchus, 
Thylacoleo, 
Pulmonoscorpius, 
Piranha and 
Dilophosaur.
Weight, crates and maps
Each one weighs 4 and stacks to 100, so a full stack weighs 400. 54 crate types can contain it, including Aberration Green, Astraeos Blue and Genesis Cyan. Our records place it on 14 maps, for example The Island, Ragnarok, Valguero, Genesis Part 1 and Genesis Part 2.
