Sukkah that Stands on Iron Rails

Question

I have a balcony on iron rails. Can I make a Sukkah in accordance with the opinion of the Chazon Ish?

Answer

Greetings,
Even according to the opinion of the Chazon Ish, who requires that the support of the support be made of something that can’t become impure, there is no such disqualification in the support of the Sukkah itself. (Rather, this only refers to the support of the Schach.)
